Overview
This article explains the Abuse reporting enhancement that is now a part of Office 365 and the Outlook client for Tennessee Tech users.
Beginning in August 2019, the abuse reporting on campus received some upgrades. Available in both the Outlook mail client and Office 365 webmail, there is a new reporting feature. This feature reports the message to abuse@tntech.edu and moves the message to your deleted items. Additionally, the feature gives ITS the complete message so ITS can track the message's origin to protect from future attacks.
