How would a flag on external email catch phishing attempts from the IT department?

Presumably OP is not in a customer facing or B2B position. For many others, however, this blanket approach is going to have a lot of false positives and missed genuine communication.

This is true. I used to work for a graphic design department where this would not work at all.

My current job though we don't deal with any external emails at all, so it works great.

IT department sends emails using external emails. Meaning emails from outside the company.

So I just flag all emails coming in from outside the company.
