Rule Agent

The Rule Agent executes rules defined in the Modular Web client.

The Rule Agent is not e-mail client specific. Although users must configure rules in the Modular Web client, the agent functions independently of any e-mail client because users’ rules are stored in their User object. Therefore, NetMail® executes the configured rules whether the users open their messages in a POP3, IMAP4, or Modular Web client.

IMPORTANT: You must restart the rulesrv executable to effect any changes in the Rule Agent's configuration. For information on loading and unloading the NetMail Agents, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.
