Conditions & Exceptions

Autoresponder rules use the conditions and exceptions below, on their Conditions and Exceptions tabs. Archive content and Attachment encrypted, which look inside attachments, are offered in policy and disclaimer rules only.

Both conditions and exceptions use the same set of rules. Exceptions are simply the logical opposite of conditions.

  • When an exception is met, the action will not be performed on the message.
  • When a condition is met, the action will be performed on the message.

The application first checks for exceptions. If no exceptions are met, it then evaluates the conditions. If the conditions are met, the action is executed on the message.
