Floating Rule Exclude Destination IP from Proofpoint List

[teo88]

Sometimes my OpenVPN External IP get on the ProofPoint Block List, so i cannot connect then to the specific IP via OpenVPN Connection. I want to Whitelist this External IP before my Proofpoint List under the FLoating Rules.

Created an ALias with the External IP as Destination, and moved the Rule above the Proofpoint List.

When i change the Direction to out the connection via Openvpn is not working, when i select Any the Openvpn Connection is working, and the IP is not blocked via the Block Lists.

Why do i have to use Any here? Why is just Direction out not working?

Thx
