    Hi @Vinod Survase ,

    How to notify the users that they are adding/sending an email to an external recipient/receiver for Outlook & OWA from admin GUI or any PowerShell or MS Graph?

    Aside from the method shared by Manu, You can also connect to Exchange Online Powershell and then run the command below to turn on the External Recipients MailTip:
    Note: It may take some time for the change to take effect.
