Difference between revisions of "Blocking Character Sets"

Revision as of 15:45, 20 July 2017

It is possible to block messages based on character set names.

In the web user interface go to Rules->Custom Rules (Compound Rules prior to version 10.1.0 so if this applies to you consult your manuals) page and then click on the link "Add an Advanced Rule". Enter:

 IF Subject Matches Regexp   \p{yyyy}
 Comment: cc
 Score: xx

Then click on "Update". When the page updates click on "+ New Clause" in the "Logical Operator" column. This will bring up a blank second filtering clause. Set the "Logical Operator" to "OR" and enter the second clause as below:

 IF Body    Matches Regexp   \p{yyyy}

Then click on "Update and Save"

Where in the above:

• cc is an optional comment
• xx is a suitable value dependent on your objectives, and,
• yyyy is one of:
  • CJK_Unified_Ideographs - for Chinese, Japanese or Korean
  • Arabic - for Arabic script
  • Cyrillic - for Cyrillic (Russian)
  • Script=Hebrew - for Hebrew script

This will also work for matching specific Unicode ranges such as:

 \p{So}

which matches the "Symbol, other" range.

All of these only work with CanIt 9.0.6 and above.
