Define a Policy List

To define a list of trigger items, you edit the associated policy list setting. These settings use a special version of the Policy Setting Properties dialog.

To define a list of trigger items

1. Open the policy you want in the Administration console.
2. In the Policy Editor screen, locate the trigger with the list setting you want to change. Example list settings include Excluded Addresses and Included Search Text.
3. Double-click the list setting or right-click and choose Properties.

   This opens the Properties dialog.

4. Use the Add, Exclude and Remove buttons to define your list.

   You cannot add multiple items into a single row of the list box. You must add items to separate rows. For example, you cannot add this as a single entry:

   file1.txt;file2.txt;file3.txt
   

   In lists of email addresses, spaces are interpreted as AND operators.
