Use community collaboration settings to define exceptions to the default outbound message settings.
Use example: In your default collaboration settings you could specify that messages sent over the AS2 protocol must return synchronous acknowledgements.

You can specify unique AS2 collaboration settings for "Community A" to create this requirement, while using the default collaboration settings for sending message via other protocols.
