Configure the Bad Words Supervision Policy in Windows PowerShell

To learn how to install and configure Windows PowerShell and connect to the service, see Use Windows PowerShell in Exchange Online.

If you turn on the bad words policy and don't specify any bad words, all messages in your organization will be blocked. Therefore, make sure to specify bad words when you turn on the policy.

Also, you can't remove individual entries or change entries on the list of bad words in Windows PowerShell. You have to replace the entire list.

Run the following command:

Set-SupervisionPolicy -BadWordsPolicyEnabled $true
-BadWordsList <word1,word2,...>

Separate words or phrases with commas. Enclose values that contain spaces or special characters in double quotation marks, as follows, for example:

Set-SupervisionPolicy -BadWordsPolicyEnabled $true -BadWordsList bad,naughty,awful,"second rate","stinkin'",sour,terrible

Run the following command:

Set-SupervisionPolicy -BadWordsPolicyEnabled $false

Run the following command:

Get-SupervisionPolicy -DisplayDetails
