Address Lists

An Address List is a group of email addresses to whom you want to apply a common policy. These groups could represent common users within your organization. For example:

• Functional groupings, such as a Sales Team or a regional office.
• Role-oriented groupings, such as Managers.
• Relational groupings, such as Company Partners.

Tell me about...

• Address Lists

  Address Lists are used by the Email ARgon Server as the 'endpoints' of policy routes. For example, a Mail Policy Route might be defined between Managers and Sales Team.

• Static Lists and LDAP Synchronized Lists

  There are two types of list:

  • Static Address/User Name List

    The entries in a Static List are defined and maintained by a local administrator. You can import lists of users and addresses into a Static Address List or User Name List from a text file.

  • LDAP Synchronized Address/User Name List

    An LDAP Synchronized List is synchronized with an LDAP server containing your user information. The LDAP Address List or User Name List is refreshed automatically by the ARgon Server once every twenty four hours.

  Address Lists are used by the Email ARgon Server as the 'endpoints' of policy routes. For example, a Mail Policy Route might be defined between Managers and Sales Team. User Name Lists are used by the ARgon Server as the 'endpoint' of a web policy route between your organization and an Internet Zone. For example, a Web Policy Route might be defined between Managers and Inappropriate Sites.

• Managing Static Lists

  You can build your own static lists, import data and manage multiple lists. See Create and Modify a Static List for more information.

• Managing LDAP Synchronized Lists

  LDAP Lists enable you to manage your user information dynamically from an LDAP Server, See Create and Modify an LDAP List for more information.
