Explanation
This query is used to review incidents where the email sending limit has been exceeded.

It then retrieves the latest incident information for each incident number and expands the alert IDs. It joins the alert IDs with the security alerts and expands the JSON entities. It filters for entities of type "mailbox" and retrieves the mailbox primary address and display name.
