DLP Rule for Exchange using ExceptIfRecipientDomainIs not working any more
Hello,
we had setup a DLP Rule for Exchange workloads that only allows sending to specific external recipients in a list we provide via populating the ExceptIfRecipientDomainIs attribute.
This has been working fine until a few days back, when suddenly the rule was failing to apply on end users (domain is listed in the Rule's ExceptIfRecipientDomainIs) and email gets blocked.
I then realized that the attribute is not populated anymore via Powershell and comes back empty!
(Get-DlpComplianceRule -Identity "DLPRULE").ExceptIfRecipientDomainIs
At the same time, the Rule on the compliance.microsoft.com portal shows up properly with the domains in question.
I then noticed that those domains now only appear under the AdvancedRule attribute only.
(Get-DlpComplianceRule -Identity "DLPRULE") | select -expand advancedrule
So it seems there has been some change in DLP rules by the compliance team at Microsoft?

I have opened a Premier support ticket with Microsoft and it is true, that this is not working anymore.
Waiting on the escalation team.
I also posted here.

AlexandrosAP Did you ever find a resolution to this? I am encountering the same behavior (modifying ExceptIfRecipientDomainIs via PowerShell does nothing and the existing domains in Purview are listed in AdvancedRule) and was wondering if you found a solution.
