Configuring inbound gateways on Microsoft 365 allows email flowing through EntrustedMail to bypass certain spam filters and spam block lists on the Microsoft gateways. This does the following:
- Allows inbound email from the Secure Message Portal to be properly delivered to your domain
- Reduce the chance of inbound encrypted email being marked as Spam
- Reduce temporary deferments caused by intra-domain email routed through EntrustedMail
The following instructions apply if you have Classic EAC or New EAC
- Under Protection select Connection Filter.
- Under Protection
- Edit the default policy.
- Add the IP ranges for the Inbound Gateway found in your Welcome E-mail, one CIDR range at a time, and press SAVE.
