If you receive an error like "550 5.7.520 Access denied, Your organization does not allow external forwarding", your company's Microsoft 365 admin has blocked external email forwarding as a security policy.
🔧 Solutions:
- Ask your IT admin to whitelist
receipts@expensebot.aias an allowed external forwarding destination - Forward from personal email — if you have a Gmail, forward receipts through that instead
- Upload directly — use ExpenseBot's camera, Google Photos import, or drag-and-drop upload instead of email forwarding
📍 For IT Admins:
The setting can be found in Microsoft 365 Admin Center → Exchange → Mail Flow → Remote Domains, or via PowerShell using Set-RemoteDomain.
This is a Microsoft 365 organization policy, not an ExpenseBot limitation. The email never reaches ExpenseBot when this policy is enabled.
