We have recently disabled the auto-forwarding for all faculty and staff in Office 365. We do have an Electronic 
Communications Policy that states all official university related communication will only be sent to official email 
accounts.

Legitimate companies never ask customers to enter login credentials or other private information by clicking on a link

legitimate ones.

Subject: [SECURITY] Employees forwarding their email offsite

Hi all,

  After an issue has come up, we are looking at a way to prevent employee's (but not students) from auto-forwarding 
their university email to personal email accounts.

I was curious to what other Universities were doing.

1.       Are you blocking auto forwarding?
2.       Do you have a university policy on what can and can't be sent?
3.       Is anybody doing this in an office365?

Thank for anything you can share!

-Jonathan
