select_users_help
A route is a specific "To" and "From" combination that includes a recipient’s and sender’s email addresses, LDAP users or groups, or address groups. You can also configure exceptions to a route.
Senders and recipients must be on the Internal Addresses list if you select incoming messages or outgoing messages when adding a new rule or modifying an existing rule:
If you are configuring an outgoing message, the Internal Address list applies to the senders.
If you are configuring an incoming message, the Internal Address list applies to the recipients.
Examples
Use the asterisk wildcard to include a range of email addresses. For example:
user@company.com: Adds only the specific address.
*@company.com: Adds any user at the domain "company.com".
*@*.company.com: Adds any user at any subdomain of "company.com". For example, "user1@accounting.company.com" would be included.
*@*: Adds all addresses.
To configure the route:
Click one of the following on the Select Recipients and Senders screen:
Recipients or Senders: Appears if you selected incoming messages or outgoing messages.
Users: Appears if you selected both incoming and outgoing messages.
Under Select addresses, select one of the following:
Anyone: Select this option to remove any restriction on the recipients or senders.
Enter address: Type the email address to add.
Search for LDAP users or groups: Type the LDAP user or group name and click Search. The results display in the list box.
Select address groups: All existing address groups appear in the list. If there are a large number of email addresses that you will reuse for routes in several rules, click Add to create an address group.
If you are adding an email address or email address group, click Add>. If you are adding an LDAP or address group, click it in the list box, and then click Add>.
To remove any email address or email address group from the Selected list, click the trash can icon.
Click Save.
When selecting an LDAP group as the recipients or senders, you can use wildcards at the beginning and/or at the end of the LDAP group if you have specified Microsoft Active Directory or Sun iPlanet Directory as the LDAP server.
To prevent virus leaks and ensure that all messages are scanned, Trend Micro recommends that you maintain at least one antivirus rule that applies to all messages at all times.
