I ’ve set up a rule in Outlook to automatically forward emails that are sent to me via Power Automate containing data from a SharePoint list using HTML table action. The emails are meant to be forwarded to some one outside my o365 organization i.e having hotmail and gmail email addresses. however I get error for the same.

Error: "Your message wasn't delivered because the recipient's email provider rejected it."

If I manually forward the same, it gets sent successfully.

Please let me know how can I resolve this
