“SMTP server(s) not responding: 550 5.7.60 SMTP; Client does not have permissions to send as this sender”

 

When testing the SMTP setting, the test button result returns successfully (turns green) on the SMTP properties setting.

Environment

Cause

- The root cause was the delegation setting of the office365 side; this issue related to the fact that NT AUTHORITY\SELF is missing in the office365 exchange settings.

Resolution

Check the following setting on the office365:

1. Please click Exchange under Admin to access Exchange Admin Center.

2. Double click your mailbox, and then locate the mail delegation tab, please check if NT AUTHORITY\SELF is listed under Send As.
