I have M365 Family and a domain name not on GoDaddy

What DNS entries do I need make to get M365 Family to verify my domain? It looks like I would need a unique id for my instance, but I am unsure how to get it.

Thus, What DNS entries do I need make to get M365 Family to verify my non-godaddy domain?

    Have MS now removed the option to add a custom domain to the Office 365 Family UK package? as I don't see it under my premium settings anymore.

    We have most of our domain working with the Premium email. We can send emails and recive email using our domain (somewhat). But we have a few questions/notes...

    1. When trying to associate my email address "Create address" it just appears to hang. Is this because I am using the same email address as I am logging into my Microsoft Account with? It goes to "Validating address..." then just goes back to the same question, see screen captures below.
      1. When sending emails, the from email address that everyone sees is some strange long string, i.e.
        1. ******@myDomainName.org via outlook.com  or
        2. My Name<outlook_******@outlook.com>; on behalf of; ******@myDomainName.org; (My Name via outlook.com)
      2. What happens to emails sent to users that are NOT setup in the system. I have been sending test emails, and would expect a bounced back email "this user or email address is not a valid address". But the email never bounces back.

    Does this work for a gTLD that's not supported by GoDaddy?

    Hi Ed, I followed the instructions in your blog post, but I only got it set up correctly after I added the dots after each external hostname (outlook.com. as well as hotmail.com. and domaincontrol.com.) Maybe you want to point this out in your blog as well.

    You could ask your domain registrar: NotGoDaddy. Mine publishes them to customers, as well as bulk uploading them for you if you use their "free DNS editing tool" if you choose to use their server (as distinct from say cloudflares servers).
