MORE INFORMATION
Note that high priority messages sent by Microsoft Mail users go through the normal priority queue in the Microsoft Exchange MTA if the Microsoft Mail users haven't been granted the right "Urgent" by Microsoft Mail administrators.
With the right "Urgent," these messages go through the high priority queue in Exchange MTA.
