Sample LDAP User Exclusion Rules

Listed below are samples of common exclusion rules. Note that the exact text of
these rules will vary based on your needs.

Sample Substring Match: Printers

In this example, printers are listed as LDAP users and would match the LDAP
query given. However, the printers all have the word “printer” in the name. The
rule looks for that substring.

Match Type: Substring Match

Exclude Type: Primary Address

Rule:

printer

Sample Exact Match: Opt-Out Users

Two users have opted out of mail filtering and should not be synchronized.

Add a separate rule for each special user.

Exclude Type

What kind of LDAP data to exclude.

Primary Address: Directory Sync will exclude
primary addresses that match this rule.

Alias Address: Directory Sync will exclude aliases
that match this rule.

If you want to exclude both primary addresses and
alias addresses, create two exclusion rules.

Rule

The match string or regular expression for the
exclusion rule. Behavior of this field depends on the
Match Type you choose.

Addresses that contain this string (or match this
regular expression) will not be added to the message
security service, and will be deleted if found.

Examples:

Exact Match:

[email protected]

Substring Match:

listinternal

Regular Expression:

internal.*@mixateria.com
