Hi All,

I’m logged in as an admin user, however I’m unable to access the Mail section for users in the Microsoft 365 admin center. It shows a message saying I don’t have permission to view this information.

Could someone please explain:

Why this happens even when the user has admin roles, and
What specific role or configuration is required to access the Mail settings?

I'm having these permissions as well on azure portal.

My main goal is to enable Auth 2.0 on SMTP. Authentication > 2.0 as BASIC is getting deprecated.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Entra / Global Admin different than Exchange permissions

Mail tab = Exchange Online

Assign Exchange Administrator (or Exchange Recipient Admin)

Re-login → Mail tab works

SMTP AUTH still OK, Basic auth is deprecated, OAuth 2.0 supported

Hi,

You need to be a Global Administrator in order to access the Mail section for users in the Microsoft 365 admin center.

Hope this helps.
