PureMessage for UNIX - Content based filtering

WolfgangK

Hi all,

I'm using PMX 5.5 for Unix. I want to create a policy rule to block mails containing phrases from a custom list - pretty the same functionality as with the offensive words list. Maybe I'm a bit confused but I can't manage it to work...

I thought pmx_phrase will be the right one but it seems I can't use a list but only a word, phrase or regex as value.

Any ideas?

    I've created a List as followed:

    Name: "My Content Filter"

    ID: "my-content-filter"

    Match Type: "Glob"

    The List contains an Entry named "*meta*honig*kuchen*killer*".

    Then I've created the following rule:

     
    # attr NAME=My Content Filter
if pmx_phrase :matches ["my-content-filter"] {
    pmx_mark1 "*MyContentFilter*";
    pmx_replace_header :index 0 "x-MyContentFilter" "matched";
}

    When I test the policy via "Test Current Policy" I can see the rule is triggered but always returns false. Each mail I've tested contained one of the following terms within it's body:

    Meta Honigkuchen Killer

    meta test honigkuchen _test_ killer

    meta-honig-kuchen-killer

    meta*honig*kuchen*killer

    *meta*honig*kuchen*killer*

    But the message only matched when I used "my-content-filter" within the body part. I've also tested ":contains" and ":memberof" instead of ":matches".
