Encrypted Emails with hosted Exchange

Hi - 
I have been beating my head trying to set up a rule to allow for encrypted emails.  We have Office 365 E3, and I have set up the EOP and the Azure Rights Management.  However, when I try and set up a rule via Mail Flow to Modify Message Security, I can only use TLS.  I want to Add Rights Protections, but it says I don't have any RMS templates.  How do I get those? 

We are completely hosted via Microsoft.  We don't have a server in house.  Every TechNet article I find talks about connecting to our local server.  I did find one Technet article that showed how to set up the inbound and outbound connectors, which I did.  It still didn't help me out.  

This really shouldn't be this hard!  Is there a place where I can get step by step instructions?  Because after I set up the encrypted email options, I have to research how to set up the EHE.  GAH!


Windows Live Mail Send Encrypted Email I get an Error: Missing Digital ids

I'm trying to send encrypted emails to a contact of mine. They have sent me a signed email with their cert. It's a self-signed cert. I've trusted it. I can see the cert listed under ID's when I look at the contacts edit screen in Windows Live Mail. However, when I try to send an encrypted email to that contact I get an error message:

Windows was unable to locate the digital IDs of the following recipients: [contact email] digital ID is missing

What am I missing?

Thanks.
