Hi all.

Is it possible with Forefront to scan the SMTP header of emails for specific
keywords and to start an action on that?

i.e. Found keyword "x-<something>:1" then deliver mail unscanned to MBX

Background: There is an Sophous in front of the Exchange ORG inserting an
X-HEADER information into the SMTP header and if we unblock mails here, we
dont want to scan/ or block the mail again banging against the first
forefront (FSE). Would be cool if FSE can identify such mails by scanning
the keyword we are using here.

Regards

Not that I'm aware of. Never seen any functionality like this.

Hi Dieter,

every information on the inet and answers I got until today seems to be
focused in SUBJECT or BODY keyword filtering, not SMTP header. Expect the
information FSE is setting itself for not to scan a mail, that was scanned
recently by another FSE in the ORG. But this cannot be affected by a
configured rule by an admin.

:/

Roger
