In this article you will find some helpful powershell scripts for accomplishing allowlisting tasks!
Please only use the following scripts if you are familiar with what they do and how to run them in your environment.
Scripts:
Sometimes it's important to enable a Transport rule to force emails to show in users' inboxes whether they have “Focused Inbox” mode enabled or not. This script will create a new Transport Rule
New-TransportRule -Name "Bypass Focused Inbox for Phin" -SenderIpRanges 198.2.177.227,198.2.178.214 -SetHeaderName "X-MS-Exchange-Organization-BypassFocusedInbox" -SetHeaderValue "True"
Additionally, you may need to enable Advanced Delivery policy/rules so that test emails are properly identified as phish simulation tests and are not blocked. If these emails are reported to Microsoft, they will also NOT be scanned, causing false-positive click reports.
Commands to be run from the “Exchange Online PowerShell”:
New-TenantAllowBlockListItems -Allow -ListType Url -ListSubType AdvancedDelivery -Entries "*.betterphish.com/*","*.shippingalerts.com/*","*.amazingdealz.net/*","*.berrysupply.net/*","*.coronacouncil.org/*","*.couponstash.net/*","*.creditsafetyteam.com/*","*.autheticate.com/*","*.notificationhandler.com/*" -NoExpiration
Commands to be run in the “Exchange Security & Compliance PowerShell”:
New-PhishSimOverridePolicy -Name PhishSimOverridePolicy
New-ExoPhishSimOverrideRule -Name PhishSimOverrideRule -Policy PhishSimOverridePolicy -Domains 'betterphish.com','shippingalerts.com','amazingdealz.net','berrysupply.net', 'coronacouncil.org','couponstash.net','creditsafetyteam.com','autheticate.com','notificationhandler.com' -SenderIpRanges 198.2.177.227,198.2.178.214
Common Errors:
A policy may not contain more than one compliance rule.
If you encounter this error, than it is likely you have already run these commands! (or a similar command for another reason that clashes with these). Please review the Microsoft docs here
to see how to edit your existing setup.
