Outlook 2010 Safe Sender

Lot's of people seem to have this issue, so I figured I would join in the other thousands of blogs and articles that already cover it and post my own information based on my own results.


Note these all apply specifically to Outlook 2010, if Outlook 2007 is still being used the directions may differ slightly.

  1. Don't forget that once an entry is added to the user's Safe Senders list that it isn't until the next folder maintenance cycle (normally 4am) that the mailbox server will add the user settings to its server-level list and hand that off to the transport server for filtering. (Same timing holds true when using Forefront Online Protection for Exchange with the Directory Sync Tool.)
    So it may take up to a day for senders to actually be safe, especially if you're using server level message interdiction.

I'm so very tired. It's almost all the time now.
