1.2 Trigger conditions and actions
Select the event and condition of a trigger rule. Currently, the following four trigger events are supported.
  • Receive external emails
  • Send to external mailboxes
  • Receive internal emails
  • Send to internal mailboxes
When an email account within the scope of application triggers a corresponding event, the email will be checked based on the rule.
You need to set the rule-triggering conditions separately. Currently, four conditions are supported.
  • Email body. Check whether the email body contains/does not contain/is equal to the corresponding keywords.
  • Email subject. Check whether the email subject contains/does not contain/is equal to the corresponding keywords.
  • Sender. Check whether the sender contains/does not contain/is equal to the corresponding email addresses.
  • Recipient, CC or, BCC. Check whether the recipient or the cc'd (or the bcc'd) contains/does not contain/is equal to the corresponding email addresses.
Note: Is equal to refers to actions that occur when the triggering conditions are all met.

After you've filled in the trigger events and conditions, you can set the action after a rule is triggered. Currently, five actions are supported.
  • Reject email: An email that has triggered a rule will be quarantined and rejected for sending (or receiving).
  • Quarantine email: An email that has triggered a rule will be quarantined and handled by the administrator.
  • Redirection: When the email triggers the rule, the intended recipient will not receive the email, and the email will be sent to the specified email address by default.
  • CC: When the email triggers the rule, the email will be cc'd to the specified email address by default.
  • BCC: When the email triggers the rule, the email will be bcc'd to the specified email address by default.
Note:
  • The recipient can't see the redirected/cc'd bcc'd email addresses.
  • Addressees that receive redirected / cc'd/bcc'd emails will see a prompt before seeing the email body.
