What it does
How SecurityInsight sends every mail: sharedMailbox = an Office 365 shared mailbox through Microsoft Graph as SecurityInsight's own identity (recommended); smtp = your own SMTP relay; none = no mail.
When set
Every mail (reports, safety-check alerts, close-loop, exemption, governance and digest mails, licence notices) goes this way. With sharedMailbox SecurityInsight sends only once it has verified that Mail.Send is restricted to the shared mailbox.
When blank or default
Left blank, the default applies: Not set: your SMTP relay when a mail server is set, else no mail
Risk and how to reverse it
A wrong value can mean that alerts and reports go to the wrong people or to nobody, or that mail stops; no collected data is changed. Reversible at once: change it back.
Requires
Nothing else.
Recommended
Keep the default. Change it when: Set up with Settings > E-mail > Set up mail, or setup\Set-SIMail.ps1.
