Problem:

How to setup Microsoft Office 365 in the Exchange Admin Center to support profilter for email delivery.

Prerequisite:

It is assumed you have already setup your profilter package and then you have configured profilter to deliver good emails (ham, i.e. not spam) to server address given to you by Microsoft.

It will look something like the below:

example-com.mail.protection.outlook.com

7. Create an exception to this rule for all Profilter IPs, so that filtered email still gets through.
