RE: Exchange Rules?????

[William Lefkovics]

Yes. Here's some more info on it: http://www.slipstick.com/rules/serverbased.htm   But the rule is still set up on the client.   >>How does Exchange decide what is and what isn't adult content?   It knows what the client has requested.  The default adult/junk mail rule in Outlook is explained in filters.txt on the client.   I wasn't clear.   William -----Original Message----- From: Thompson, Steve [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 1:05 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange Rules????? See the Q222308 article below for some explanation.   MORE INFORMATION ================ Rules either run on the server or the client. Rules that run on the server are in effect even when you are not running Outlook (the client). Rules marked in the Rules Wizard as "(client-only)" may only work when you are running Outlook. If a rule requires access to your personal folders, it is a client-only rule, since your personal folders (.pst) file is located on your client computer. Rules that present you with a message are also client-side rules. If the rule only depends on mailbox folders, located on the server, then it is a server-side rule and can run as long as the mail server is running. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q222308 -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 11:00 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange Rules????? The Adult rule in Outlook is client specific.  Exchange makes no decisions.   You could look for the file filters.txt on the client side to see what the junk/adult email filter will do.   William   -----Original Message----- From: Garland Mac Neill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 8:33 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange Rules????? Hello all,   I'm hoping the guru's can give me a hand here. Can anyone explain to me how rules work in Exchange. I'm not looking for the novice end user answer, I mean where do they live on the server? What the difference is between client and server, besides the obvious. What I'm looking for is an explanation of how they really work, or better yet a good document explaining it.   For example, if you have a rule setup that says all Adult content goes to the trash with the exception of "X", how does Exchange interrupt that data? How does Exchange decide what is and what isn't adult content?   TIA   Garland Mac Neill Sys Admin Solbourne [EMAIL PROTECTED]   List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
