Creating a messaging policy
As with other Teams policies, there's a default/global policy that applies to all users. You can create a custom messaging policy that applies to specific users instead, while still leaving the remaining (unassigned) users to the default policy. In this recipe, we'll create a custom messaging policy to apply to specific users, restricting their abilities when it comes to messaging in channels and in chats.
