transport rules

About this tag
Transport rules in Microsoft Exchange Server are a critical feature for managing email flow and security, but recent updates have caused significant disruptions. In November 2024, Microsoft paused a security update for Exchange Server 2016 and 2019 due to major issues with transport and Data Loss Prevention (DLP) rules, leading to functionality problems for organizations. Additionally, vulnerabilities like CVE-2025-25006 have highlighted spoofing risks in Exchange Server, requiring prompt administrative action. Transport rules also play a role in filtering legitimate emails, as seen in an Exchange Online incident where Gmail messages were incorrectly quarantined. These topics underscore the importance of careful update management and monitoring of transport rules to maintain email reliability and security.
