Edit my outbound spam filter policy for email forwarding

As a security measure, by default you can’t forward email to external addresses. If you’d like to forward email, edit your outbound spam filter policy first.

Required: You need admin permissions to change outbound spam filter policies. For more info, see admin roles from Microsoft.

  1. Sign in to Office 365 Security & Compliance.
  2. Select the arrow to expand Outbound spam filter policy > Edit policy.
    Outbound spam filter policy expanded and edit policy button with pencil icon
  3. Select Automatic forwarding > On – Forwarding is enabled.
    Automatic forwarding expanded and on selected from drop-down list
  4. Select Save. You can now use forwards with external email addresses.
