1. Please check your email server following KBA 2087468 - Emails Blocked or Not Delivered Due to Spam Filters, Spoofing, Bombing (mass mail), IP Address Allowlists.
2. Please find the below generic recipient pattern that will be discarded internally in the email infrastructure.
Regex (.*) meaning any characters, so any recipients starting with dummy@anydomain will be ignored along with the other recipients in the same message.
Similarly, any recipient for the @example.com domain will be discarded and so on. This is the generic list for all the DCs.
/^.*@example\.com$/ discard
/^.*@test\.com$/ discard
/^.*@.*\.test\.com$/ discard
/^.*noemail.*@.*$/ discard
/^.*test.*@.*$/ discard
Please remove the email address with above pattern from receipents.
