However, it may be the case (as rare as it may be) that Outlook successfully calls the add-in but the add-in encounters an issue and fails to render the warning prompt. This could be due to the dialog already being opened in another window, or problems with permissions. The default in this case is to allow the message to be sent. If instead blocking the email is preferred, please enter a support ticket from the administrators\u2019 dashboard referencing this article (just the URL) and the defaults needed, and the issue will be addressed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65e51ab flex-horizontal-align-default flex-horizontal-align-tablet-default flex-horizontal-align-mobile-default flex-vertical-align-default flex-vertical-align-tablet-default flex-vertical-align-mobile-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"65e51ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Next Steps:<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ee2509d flex-horizontal-align-default flex-horizontal-align-tablet-default flex-horizontal-align-mobile-default flex-vertical-align-default flex-vertical-align-tablet-default flex-vertical-align-mobile-default elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ee2509d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"\/Email-Tools\/learn-overview\/allow-or-block-users\/\">Allow or Block Users From Interacting With The Add-In<\/a><\/p><p><a href=\"\/Email-Tools\/learn-overview\/how-to-use-safeguard-send-for-microsoft-365-effectively-limitations-and-solutions\/\">How to Use Safeguard Send for Microsoft 365 Effectively: Limitations and Solutions<\/a><\/p><p><a href=\"\/Email-Tools\/learn-overview\">Learn More Overview<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Change the Default Send Behavior of Outlook When Using Safeguard Send for Microsoft 365 The default behavior is&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":104331,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"elementor_header_footer","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-108131","page","type-page","status-publish"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.7 (Yoast SEO v27.7) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\r\n<title>Safeguard Send Learning Center - How to Change Default Send Behavior When Sending Emails<\/title>\r\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Learn how to change Outlook&#039;s default send behavior when using Safeguard Send for Microsoft 365.
