I am just getting started in web development and I was tasked with creating a web-mail php form. I was able to pull a resource online and it works flawlessly with gmail, outlook.com and almost every other email service I throw at it, but when I add my office 365 account I never receive the message. I get an email from godaddy from an @a2plcpnl0560.prod.iad2.secureserver.net domain, but not on my office 365 email. I have been through the forums and I just don't have enough knowledge at the moment to know where to begin to tackle the problem. I have seen examples of PHPMailer being used and I attempted to make the code work but on my domain I never got the confirmation message from the form itself. I am not sure if there is something I need to configure in the admin center of office 365 to get this to work or not. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
