The correct arrangement reflects key architectural differences between Exchange Online and Exchange Server. Features like public folders and mail flow rules (transport rules) are supported in both environments, while certain on-premises infrastructure capabilities - such as Edge Transport server role deployment - exist exclusively in Exchange Server, as Exchange Online manages its own edge protection through Microsoft's cloud infrastructure (EOP).
