Subject: [EXTERNAL] [mailop] Microsoft, can you shed light on this?? Outlook 
Live clients and account discovery..



Microsoft is making it REALLY hard to determine legitimate attempts at

authentication, or authentication discovery, as the IPs they use have NO

differentiators from bad IPs on their networks.



The following appear to be:

(even though they are being part of the new Outlook email client

routing system):



40.99.85.29 (MY)

52.98.116.53 (SG)

40.99.104.101 (KR)

40.99.53.37 (JP)

52.98.49.141 (MY)

40.99.32.173 (JP)



they are reported to be coming from various remote countries based on

the various GeoIP DB and are being blocked by the country auth.



There is no consistency, and even from official MS Outlook IPs, we no

longer even have PTR's on them.



Another company wanting to make it difficult to run your own email

servers..



Can we get a little more transparency on which IPs are actually part of

the MS routing for Outlook authentication/discovery IPs?
