Advocate IThe new behavior has indeed unintended consequences for us: automated Power BI subscription emails appear as messages from the subscription owner, are added to the owner’s Sent Items, and out-of-office/automatic replies are returned to the owner’s mailbox.
Microsoft Support has confirmed that the current behavior is by design. It would be useful to better understand the business or technical requirement behind using the subscription owner as the sender.
From an enterprise perspective, I think it would be valuable if the sender identity were configurable. For example:
- Microsoft Power BI no-reply address
- A customer-defined organizational/service account
- The subscription owner, as with the current behavior
This would allow organizations to choose the model that best fits their operational, governance, and email-management requirements.
