EOP and user digest messages
I'm setting up antispam policy as I migrate to EOP. I have a pretty standard policy, everyone gets the same settings not one is special and has more relaxed or more restrictive antispam rules.
However I do have only a limited group who receive user digest messages not everyone. When setting up my antispam policy I see you can apply it to users groups or all but I don't see that you can only send digested to set users\groups.
Does this mean if I want a digest sent to one group only I need two policies that are basically the same (one with digest and one with not) and apply the policy with the direct to the group that receive the digest and the other policy to everyone else?
If that's the cases my next question is there a way to copy an antispam policy into a new one? It will take ages to create a new one exactly the same (long story why it just does).
Try below:
- Applying Digest Messages to Specific Groups: Unfortunately, it seems that you cannot apply digest settings directly to specific users or groups within a single policy. This means you would indeed need to create two separate policies—one with digest enabled for the specific group and one without digest for everyone else.
- Copying an Antispam Policy: While there isn't a direct way to copy an existing antispam policy, you can use PowerShell to export and import policies, which can save you some time. Here's a high-level overview of how you can do this:
- Export the existing policy: Use the Get-HostedContentFilterPolicy cmdlet to export the settings of your current policy.
- Create a new policy: Use the New-HostedContentFilterPolicy cmdlet to create a new policy with the exported settings.
- Apply the new policy: Use the Set-HostedContentFilterPolicy cmdlet to apply the new policy to the desired users or groups.
