We don't have much info to go on here... Where's the exchange server in relation to the employee network? Do you need spam protection on those firewall policies?

We have not enough information about your mailflow so its difficult to help.

 

I had a similar issue and will tell you what i have done, maybe it will help:

 

In our company ServerX sends internal Mails to our Fortimail and the Fortimail relays the mails to our internal Exchange. This messages were detected as Spam from Outlook.

 

My solution was to create a transport rule on our Exchange for all mails where the Received Header contains "from ServerX" and set the spam confidence level to -1. The mails are not SPAM anymore.

this our mail flow : internet -------- forigate ---------exchange server

 

We do not have fortimail or anti spam program. What information is needed please tell me I will posted here.

 

thanks
