    Article summary

    Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) - Forward Email Rule adds a forwarding email address and other related email information for:
    * Users that match the results of the selected saved query and match the Enforcement Action Conditions, if defined, or users selected on the Users page.

    Messages are then forwarded to this new email address. For example, if a user terminates employment and will no longer receive emails to their company email address but to a new email address.
