  • Here is a rule that should work for you. 

    This rule set assumes that you will type *encrypt*  in the subject line.. or assumes you have downloaded the outlook plug in.

    (if you dont like the outlook plug in you can manually change the sensitivity to company-confidential

    Have fun!

    under configuration \ policy \ data control or additional policy \ outbound

    add
    rule type:
    messages matching specific words or phrases
    enable advanced policy
    next
    rule config:
    click on the regular expressions tab
    .*  (period star, no spaces etc)
    add
    next
    message attributes : (2 rules)
    #1
    select header
    Name Subject (note the capital S is important)
    check off "is (exact match)"
    value : *encrypt*   (or what ever keyword you like) you can also use the contains sub string if you want to look for *encrypt encrypt [encrypt] etc)
    apply

    #2
    Header
    Name Sensitivity (note the capital again)
    check off "is exact match"
    value company-confidential  (all lower case)
    apply

    you will now see a check box at the bottom of the rule.. make sure you click "One of the message attributes must be present"

    so the rule in the window should read..

    Header is:'Subject: *encrypt*'
    OR Header is: Sensitivity: company-confidential

    next
    select users
    next
    main action
    encrypt using spx, select your template and you will probably want to check off all 3 boxes..
    additional actions
    next
    rule description
    name it save it.

    once your dropped back to the list of policies use the arrows ^ to move it to the top and click save order.
