- Existing subscriptions remain in place; users do not need to recreate subscriptions or change recipient lists/schedules.
- Organizations that rely on the current sender address in mail flow rules, allow lists, inbox rules, safe-sender lists, or automated workflows should review and update those dependencies after the sender migration.

The phased rollout starts late September 2026 through January 2027. No subscription recreation is needed, but organizations should review mail rules relying on the old sender identity.
