Managing Exclusion Rules

Managing your archive's exclusion rules

The Exclusion Rule Manager section allows Administrators to set a rule that will exclude mails from being processed into the Storage Node repositories. Mails that are excluded will be held in a separate subdirectory on the server for a specified number of days (default is 2 days) before they are deleted by the daily management tasks.

Each rule will exclude mails that exactly match the criteria of the rule. You can use * (wildcard values) to create the criteria. Cryoserver does not allow you to review the excluded mails and to re-queue them after changing the rules for Compliance reasons.

1. Navigate to Email Management > Exclusion Rule Manager.

2. Click the Create New Rule button.

3. Enter / Select the required values in the fields. Refer to the table below for field names and descriptions.
