Re: Server Mail Rules precedence -- DOMINO400





Jerry,

I haven't tested it exhaustively, so I don't know for certain whether
putting the new ZIP exception rule above the attachment rejection rule will
do the trick.  If not, you might consider taking the ZIP out of your
attachment rejection rule and make a new rejection rule for just ZIP files
and build your exception directly into rule.  As opposed to having to make
two rules play nicely together.

If you just wants something that looks like a mail file to accept the
delivered ZIP attachment, go ahead and use the mail template that you
normally use for your user mail files.  Or maybe I'm misunderstanding the
intent of your question?  You can always create a database based on the
templates you are curious about and see if it has the desired features, if
that's what you were referring to instead.  I think document library would
be more appropriate than database library, but that's based on incomplete
data, so don't take my word for it.

I have a server mail rule set to reject all email that contain attachments
according to attachment type. This includes any attachment of .zip.

This effectively blocks all email with zipped attachments.

However I would like to create another rule that would accept a zip
attachment from a specific sender and move that email (with the zipped
attachment) to a specific database.

Two questions:

1) Will the existing server rule that refuses any email with zipped
attachments override the newly created rule to move an email with a zipped
attachment to a specific database.

2) If the new rule is not overridden by the existing rule, what type of
nsf template should I use to create the database to house the accepted
email containing the zip attachment? Would it be a database library or a
document library? Does it matter?
