Receiver rewriter
This action is valid for the following senders: External and Local.
This action changes the destination address upon email receipt. For example, after a change of company name, you can have all emails addressed to the old address rewritten to the new address. A second use case is the definition of a so-called secret address. For example, you can specify that all emails containing the suffix *secret* in the address field are considered welcome and delivered without verification. A rule may look like this:
Position | From | To | Decision | Action |
1 | *@* | *secret@example.com | Pass | Receiver rewriter |
The address manipulation removes the keyword and forwards this email to your correct email address. The keyword can of course be defined by you and changed again if necessary.
Using the Address Manipulation action
- Activate the Address Manipulation action in a rule (see above).
The configuration dialog opens. -
Under Match, enter the string to be replaced from the confidential address.
- Under Replace, enter the text to replace the text from the Match.
- Click Save and close.
TIP: For example, you may replace the string "confidential" in the confidential address "user1confidential@example.com" with an empty string for the correct address "user1@example.com".
