Bypassing certain email address

Starting build 5868 administrators can bypass certain email addresses from getting filtered. This feature has several benefits:

  • Bypass filtering for a user who does not want spam filtering
  • This user's email address will not be consume a license.

Important Notes

This email will get filtered unless all three recipients are bypassed.
  • Aliases and Discussion lists cannot be bypassed.
