Note:

After the setup, all alert will use this common Email address ([email protected]) as the sender’s address, other Email will use sap user’s Email address as the sender’s.

Usually those sent emails won’t show up in [email protected]’s sent mailbox. (this is the function of most Email client. SBO mailer dont have it) . You can add a transportation rule in office 365  to bcc the sent emails back to [email protected] for your records
