Microsoft 365 Messaging Administrator Certification Transition (legacy) — Question 8

You have a Microsoft Exchange Server 2019 organization that contains 1,000 users and three Mailbox servers.
You discover an increase in spam.
You need to use an anti-spam real-time block list.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Deploy an Edge Transport server.
• B. Run the Install-AntispamAgents.ps1 PowerShell script.
• C. Deploy a data loss prevention (DLP) policy.
• D. Configure the junk email settings for the mailboxes.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because deploying an Edge Transport server allows for the implementation of anti-spam features, including real-time block lists. The other options, such as running a script or configuring DLP and junk email settings, do not directly establish an effective anti-spam mechanism at the network edge.
