Review the Email Domain Security Plan (EDSP).
Determine the global maximum message recipient count.
Open the Exchange Management Shell and enter the following command:
Get-TransportConfig | Select Name, Identity, MaxRecipientEnvelopeLimit
If the value of "MaxRecipientEnvelopeLimit" is not set to "5000", this is a finding.
or
If "MaxRecipientEnvelopeLimit" is set to an alternate value and has signoff and risk acceptance in the EDSP, this is not a finding.

Update the EDSP to specify the global maximum message recipient count.
Set-TransportConfig -MaxRecipientEnvelopeLimit 5000
