Data loss prevention Exchange conditions and actions reference
Conditions in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies identify sensitive items that the policy is applied to. Actions define what happens as a consequence of a condition of exception being met.
- Conditions define what to include
- Actions define what happens as a consequence of condition being met
Most conditions have one property that supports one or more values. For example, if the DLP policy is being applied to Exchange emails, the The sender is condition requires the sender of the message. Some conditions have two properties. For example, the A message header includes any of these words condition requires one property to specify the message header field, and a second property to specify the text to look for in the header field. Some conditions or exceptions don't have any properties. For example, the Attachment is password protected condition simply looks for attachments in messages that are password protected.
Actions typically require additional properties. For example, when the DLP policy rule redirects a message, you need to specify where the message is redirected to.

Conditions Exchange for DLP policies
The tables in the following sections describe the conditions and exceptions that are available in DLP.
Senders
If you use the sender address as a condition the actual field where the value is looked for varies depending on the sender address location configured. By default, DLP rules use the Header address as the sender address.
At the tenant level, you can configure a sender address location to be used across all rules, unless overridden by a single rule. To set tenant DLP policy configuration to evaluate the sender address from the Envelope across all rules, you can run the following command:
Set-PolicyConfig -SenderAddressLocation Envelope
To configure the sender address location at a DLP rule level, the parameter is SenderAddressLocation. The available values are:
Header: Only examine senders in the message headers (for example, the From, Sender, or Reply-To fields). This is the default value.
Envelope: Only examine senders from the message envelope (the MAIL FROM value that was used in the SMTP transmission, which is typically stored in the Return-Path field).
Header or envelope (
HeaderOrEnvelope
) Examine senders in the message header and the message envelope.

Recipients
When an email is sent to multiple recipients and the DLP policy rules allow only some of those emails to be delivered, the email might get bifurcated. For example, say that your DLP policy rules allow emails to be sent to email addresses within your organization and blocks emails from being sent to external email addresses.
There are several policy conditions that cause bifurcation; that allowing an email to be sent to some users but not to others. For more information about bifurcation and the details about how bifurcation works, see the article on Bifurcation.
