In order to ensure that email is sent using typical secure settings in Dynamics 365 Finance, the correct setting to be set up is option A: The SMTP port field is set to 587.

SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the standard protocol used for email transmission over the internet. The default port for SMTP is 25, but for secure email transmission, port 587 is commonly used.

By setting the SMTP port field to 587, the email sent from Dynamics 365 Finance will be transmitted over a secure and encrypted connection, ensuring that the email content is protected from interception and unauthorized access.

Options B, C, and D are not relevant to setting up secure email transmission in Dynamics 365 Finance. Information Rights Management (IRM) is a feature used to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access within the organization, and it does not directly impact email transmission. Encryption methods such as S/MIME and PGP are used for securing email content, but they require additional configuration and are not necessary for typical secure email transmission. In-place eDiscovery is a feature used for searching and locating content within the organization's email and document repositories and is not related to email transmission security.
