What are the options to request confirmation when sending emails to external contacts?
I guess you only looked at the templates? Simply create a new rule (or even use one of the templates), then add the corresponding conditions, exceptions and actions. Also, don't forget to click the "More options" link at the bottom of the New rule dialog.
In your case, a sample rule might use the "recipient is external" condition, and the action "forward the message for approval". It's just a suggestion though, not sure whether it will fit your needs.
MailTips will also work on OWA, but they do nothing apart from displaying a warning message. If you want some sort of confirmation/approval action, take a look into Transport rules and moderation.
Hi VasilMichev , tx for your prompt response and directing me into Transport rules. I've checked the list of transport rules =>Mail flow rules (transport rules) in Exchange Online ; but wasn't able to find one that's related to sending emails to external contacts. Are there more transport rules? Where can I find them? Tx.
