Hello experts, We are maintaining Hybrid environment with all the user's are on-premises and mailboxes are cloud. And here I'm facing an issue with Exchange transport rules. 1.We are having this Rule Quarantine for suspected spam emails and its priority is 20. Now I want to allow some of the senders to bypass this rule and the mails should receive directly to user's inbox. 2.Created a new rule Bypass spam filtering for requested senders and marked its priority to 19 But still the mails are landing quarantine from the senders. Have I missed any part here?

Hi Akhil , If you disable the first rule（Quarantine for suspected spam emails）, can senders who need to bypass the rule successfully send messages out? If it works, I would suggest that you can set exceptions directly in this rule. For example: If the answer is helpful, please click "Accept Answer" and kindly upvote it. If you have extra questions about this answer, please click "Comment".

Mails are landing into quarantine even after creating bypass spam rule.

Hi @Aholic Liang-MSFT

Thanks for your response,

I can't disable this rule (Quarantine for suspected spam emails) Bcz if I do that lot of spam mails will get deliver to user's inbox this will cause additional issues.

Hi @ Akhil ,

It is only temporarily disabled to confirm whether the specific users' mails are filtered by this rule.

Alternatively, you can simply set an exception in this rule and see if it can be sent in successfully.

If not, there may be other policies or rules in your environment that block these messages.

Hi @Aholic Liang-MSFT

Thanks for your suggestion,

I added that exception condition for the existing rule and let's see what will happen next.

I will update it here.
