Outbound Rules - What


Option	Description	Available

You can select a local folder or a folder from your network to which you browse using Network Neighbourhood. You can send the subfolders of the selected folder(s) by selecting Send subfolders*.	Standard & Advanced Rules
Add File..	Allows you to select an individual file to send. You can browse to the file or type the name of the file. The file does not have to exist when you create the Rule, but having selected files to send, no e-mail will be sent unless there is at least one file to send.	Standard & Advanced Rules
Remove >>	Allows you to remove the currently highlighted file or folder from the list.	Standard & Advanced Rules
Datasource..	Allows you to select a field from a Datasource that contains the names of files to be sent. Note that this Datasource is not connected to the Datasource that can be used to select your message recipients.	Standard & Advanced Rules
Fields	Allows you to reselect the field name specified when using a Datasource.	Standard & Advanced Rules
Send Files	Provides options controlling when files should be sent: If date/time is newer If version number is newer If date/time and version number is newer Important Note: Not all files have version numbers. Please see File version numbers.	Standard & Advanced Rules
Send subfolders	Allows you to send the contents of all subfolders contained in the folder(s) you have selected to transmit.	Standard & Advanced Rules
Send files zipped	Allows you to compress ("zip") the files being sent, thereby reducing your transmission size & time. The files being sent are compressed into a single file called a "zip" file, for which you must supply a filename. This Zip file can only be opened by a user who has WinZip installed, or uses a MailRules Inbound Rule. This option is only available on Standard Rules as all Advanced Rules are automatically Zipped and Encrypted.	Standard Rules only
Encrypt	You can encrypt files you are transmitting using the TripleDES encryption algorithm. Click the Encrypt button and you will be able to select a password - the password can either be the password belonging to one of your existing Profiles, or you can enter an alternative password. If you send the file zipped (using the Send File Zipped option) the recipient can use a MailRules Inbound Rule with the UnZip *.ZIP option to automatically unencrypt your message (they must have your e-mail address & advanced rule password stored in their address book).	Standard Rules only - Advanced Rules are automatically encrypted
Delete files once sent	Permanently deletes all files that have been transmitted after the message has been successfully sent. Note that successful send does not mean successful delivery. See Done Folder.	Standard & Advanced Rules
