ATOI365D#Office365Challenge Here’s a blog right under my nose I didn’t think of writing. The Weekly digest: Office 365 changes. Thanks @AlistairPugin for reminding me. What a great idea, the Admin Centre in Office 365 delivers a Weekly Digest mail with all the recent updates (Office 365 Message center announcements from last week).

Day:  344 of 365, 21 left
Tools:  Office 365
Description: Weekly digest: Office 365 changes
Audience:  Admins, IT Managers, Training Managers

What does Microsoft say?  This admin digest email is personalized for your organization and reflects your individual preferences. To customize what’s included in this email and who gets it, set your Message center preferences. Stay on top of upcoming Office 365 changes, take required action, and prevent problems. 

How to get the email:

At first I didn’t get these mails. @AlistairPugin shared it with our #IWSAUG group and I immediately wanted it. Below you’ll see the mail. How neat is THAT?!?!? At the bottom of the mail you have the ability to unsubscribe if you wish to do so. In the top right section you’ll see a link “Edit Message Center Preferences” (this is how I got to change mine, I clicked on it in the forwarded mail):

The link opened my Admin Centre on Office 365. You can (manually) navigate to this by going to Admin Centre > Health > Message Centre. You’ll see a link top right “Edit Message Center Preferences”. Here you can make the necessary changes and add email addresses.

Note:  Be patient as it might take a couple of days for you to receive your first email. 🙂

Thanks Office 365 for saving me so much time!

Overview of my challenge: As an absolute lover of all things Microsoft, I’ve decided to undertake the challenge, of writing a blog every single day, for the 365 days. Crazy, I know. And I’ll try my best, but if I cannot find something good to say about Office 365 and the Tools it includes for 365 days, I’m changing my profession. So let’s write this epic tale of “Around the Office in 365 Days”. My ode to Microsoft Office 365.
Keep in mind that these tips and tricks do not only apply to Office 365 – but where applicable, to the overall Microsoft Office Suite and SharePoint.
