Outlook rewrites all links in my email to go through Microsoft servers

0

One of my email providers recently switched to providing the mail service via MS Outlook. Then, a few weeks ago, all of my mail messages started having their web links rewritten - to go through https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com.

I don't want this; I don't need this; and it messes up my emails. Instead of archiving the mail messages I was sent, I only have access to rewritten emails by Microsoft!

Is there a way to bypass/overcome this?

Yes.

Can I turn off Safelinks?

To provide the best protection for your account, Safelinks are on by default. You can turn them off by signing in to https://outlook.live.com. Then select Settings > Premium > Security. There's a toggle under Advanced Security that you can use to turn off Safelinks. Note that turning off Safelinks will only affect future messages you receive. It won't change the link format in messages you've already received.

My Outlook is accessible under outlook.office.com, and there are no "Premium" settings there... – einpoklum – 2019-04-27T20:33:37.657

@einpoklum Then ask your email provider to fix it for you. – DavidPostill – 2019-04-27T20:35:24.173
