Create a Rule in Exchange Online

To submit the sent Zivver messages to the Zivver SMTP Server, you must filter those messages out, to deliver them securely to the recipient. Otherwise the server delivers those messages insecurely.

  2. Click on Mail flow in the menu on the left.
  3. Click on Rules.
  4. Click on add Add a rule.
  5. Click on Create a new rule.
  6. Enter a name.
    For example: Zivver Relay.
  7. Under Apply this rule if * select The message headers….
  8. Under Select one select matches these text patterns.
  9. Click on Enter text.
  10. Enter zivver-relay.
  11. Click Save.
  12. Click on Enter words.
  13. Enter ..*. (that is 2 dots, 1 asterisk/wildcard, 1 dot).
  14. Click Add.
  15. Click Save.
  16. Under Do the following * select Redirect the message to.
  17. Under Select one select the following connector.
  18. Select the connector that you have created in the previous section.
  19. Click Save.
  20. Click Next.
  21. Enable the option Stop processing more rules.
  22. Enable the option Defer the message if rule processing doesn’t complete.
  23. Click Next.
  24. Click Finish.
  25. Click Done.

The rule is created but not enabled yet. Please make sure that the priority of all existing rules is correct. If the sent message needs to be processed by other rules first, please make sure that the rule created for Encryption Gateway has a lower priority.

As the rule is not enabled yet, no outbound message that matches the filter will be submitted to the Zivver SMTP Server. Please enable the rule when you are sure all priorities are correct.
