Choose "mail flow" from the left side menu, and the "connectors" from the top menu.

Enter a "*" (a single asterisk), and click “OK"
Click "Next"
Choose "Route email through these smart hosts", and click the "+" button
enter "outbound.mailroute.net" and click "Save”
Click "Next"

It can take Microsoft 45-60 minutes to apply the changes you just made to your configuration.
Note: MailRoute will automatically recognize that you are using Office 365 for your outbound service, so you do not need to enter an outbound mailserver in the MailRoute Control Panel.
