RMS connector external recipient
Hello
In a hybrid environment . Using Azure AD Connect. If i install the RMS connector on-prem, can on-prem users send protected emails to O365 recipients that are in a different org\tenant , and can these users read these emails? trying to understand what is required to allow external users to read an rms protected email ?
- According to the docs you can use it internally and externally, but I've never used it. The connector is simply a relay to Azure RMS and is used for seamless protection between the on-premises and cloud environment. From a logical point of view, it should be all good when that connection is established.
If you're using the Microsoft Purview encryption feature built on Azure RMS (legacy Office Message Encryption) with Encrypt only and Do not forward, you'll only be able to use mail flow rules from on-premises.
Search the docs for more details around the setup and possibilities.
