Question #: 87
Topic #: 4

You have a Microsoft 365 tenant that contains a user named User1.
Automatic email forwarding to mailboxes outside your company is blocked for the tenant.
You need to ensure that User1 can automatically forward email to an external recipient.
What should you do?

A. Create an anti-phishing policy.
B. Create an anti-spam policy.
C. Modify the Tenant Allow/Block List.
D. Create an anti-malware policy.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
The new method of blocking AutoForwarding is managed in Threat Management policies instead of Exchange transport rules. It is well hidden with a relatively new default policy called Outbound spam filter policy.
If you do have a need for email to be automatically forwarded from internal to an external destination, then a custom policy must be created to allow any exceptions.
You need to create the custom Outbound Spam policy.
