Header Attribute List

Question

Can someone point me in the direction of a list of Email Header attributes I can use in Data Control Policies please? 
 Help guide doesn't cover this and Sophos Support was unable to advise me on this in a recent call. 
 Thanks, 
 Craig

Hi CraigLloyd Thank you for posting in the Community. 
 Email header attributes are a combination of product and non-product specific ones. But as long as it is a header, you should be able to pick it for triggering a policy. The Sophos ones will usually have a "sophos" mentioned but the regular email headers like "content-type", "to:", "from:", etc. can also be used. So this may be why there is no "list of email header attributes" since you can pick one of the headers and enter the value that will trigger the DLP rule.

Any header in a message with the exception of headers added by Sophos protection can be edited. You can inspect and act upon any message header including custom headers so there is no standard list.
