How to Add, Edit or Delete Exclusion Rules? -
Description
Exclusion rules allow Archive Manager to ignore an email message based on specified attributes. This can be useful for ensuring that system-generated or administration messages are not included in the Archive Manager store. Archive Manager stores an MD5 value of excluded messages, which can be purged if required.NOTE: An exclusion rule cannot be deleted after an email has been excluded by that rule.Exclusion rules have the following characteristics:- Exclusion rules are case insensitive.
- Wildcards are supported anywhere in the rule.
The Exclusion Rule criteria may include one or more of the following parameters:- Name: The name by which you want the exclusion rule to be identified (for example, "System files").
- From: The email address where the message(s) originated (example: administrator@mydomain.com).
- To: The email address to which the excluded email message(s) are sent. Important: The rule will work only where there is a single recipient in the To field of the message.
- Subject: The Subject of email(s) you want to exclude. The exclusion will apply only to email(s) whose Subjects match exactly the string entered here. You may use a wildcard asterisk in this string to represent one or more characters at the beginning or end of the string, or somewhere within the string.
- Header: Header information included in the email messages to be excluded (example: Content-Transfer-Encoding). The Header Value field (below) must contain a corresponding value for this Header setting to take effect.
- Header Value: Header value information contained in excluded email messages (example: binary).
