Once the recipient opens the email in the inbox and hovers over the link with his mouse, the redirect link is displayed. This is a URL with random characters, like this example:
https://6d9fdf51da054e62bd4743a6btcf2aaf3.svc.dynamics.com/t/t/FdbVlxti4aMSIBZDFdknBCc5A4wESmXdxEAXfJoLLRQx/VC4FfIW1IivoK5vfUKZ0zevxOho8cIGpjMQeqjpvjcj8x
This looks insecure and unreliable and recipients are less likely to click on the link because they don't trust it.
Other marketing tools allow to add a prefix in front of the url, for example the sender domain. The redirect link would look like this then:
https://.6d9fdf51da054e62bd4743a6btcf2aaf3.svc.dynamics.com/t/t/FdbVlxti4aMSIBZDFdknBCc5A4wESmXdxEAXfJoLLRQx/VC4FfIW1IivoK5vfUKZ0zevxOho8cIGpjMQeqjpvjcj8x

Is this idea being considered for implementation? This would be valuable to us.

Yes, and preferable our own (as customer of Microsoft) domain. Not a Microsoft domain.

We've also had customers point this out to us. As a financial institution we prioritize cyber security practices and educate our customers to be cautious of suspicious links. We want the insights that this feature offers AND to maintain the trust of our email recipients.

Sorry, the URL displayed at the end of the post is incorrect since it does not contain the domain name. This should be:
https://thisisthedomainname.com.6d9fdf51da054e62bd4743a6btcf2aaf3.svc.dynamics.com/t/t/FdbVlxti4aMSIBZDFdknBCc5A4wESmXdxEAXfJoLLRQx/VC4FfIW1IivoK5vfUKZ0zevxOho8cIGpjMQeqjpvjcj8x
