- **Wait for URL scanning to complete before delivering the message**:
- Selected (on): Messages that contain URLs are held until scanning is finished. Messages are delivered only after the URLs are confirmed to be safe. This value is the recommended value.
- Not selected (off): If URL scanning can't complete, deliver the message anyway.
- **Do not rewrite URLs, do checks via SafeLinks API only**: If this setting is selected (on), no URL wrapping takes place but the URLs are scanned prior to message delivery. In supported versions of Outlook (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Outlook on the web), Safe Links is called via APIs at the time of URL click for an extra scan.
