Add a Journaling Rule

As part of configuration, you need to create a journaling rule in Microsoft 365 to allow email flow through the Email Security service.

A journaling mailbox is the mailbox that receives messages that match a journaling rule's conditions. Messages matching the rule's conditions are delivered to the journaling address specified in the rule.

You have a unique Email Security journaling address available to you in Email Security to create the journaling rule.
