Blocking Email Forwarding from Power Automate

MVP

Power Automate (Flow) can forward email from Exchange Online mailboxes to external recipients. This isn’t a great idea if you want email kept within the control of your data governance framework. Power Automate now inserts x-headers in the email it sends, which allows the use of transport (mail flow) rules to detect and reject these messages if required.

Hi Tony, I reviewed this config recently and noticed that the ‘x-ms-mail-operation-type’ header has been updated to ‘Send’ *or ‘Forward’*

@Joshua Bines Thanks very much for the heads-up. I have updated the post.
