Mail policy attributes

The Mail policy attributes that you need to understand when working with Mail policy definitions are described in the following table.

Purpose

Understanding the Path, PznType, and PathType attributes is critical to working successfully with Mail policy nodes below the main (root) policy. The Path attribute is a key parameter that you need to specify when running the XML configuration interface to export, update, or delete child policy definitions. The table includes examples that illustrate a hypothetical Mail policy hierarchy that consists of three levels of specialization under the main (root) Mail policy:

• USAMailChild1
  Uses policy rule Rule 1 and policy condition USA.

  • USAMailChild11
    Uses policy rule Rule 2 and policy condition USAManager.

    • USAMailChild111
      Uses policy rule Rule 3 and policy condition USALocalityName

• JAPANMailChild1
  Uses policy rule Rule 1 and policy condition JAPAN.
