Content filters without a condition are applied to all messages that match the associated mail policy.
In the content filter conditions, when you add filter rules that search for certain patterns in the message
body or attachments, you can specify the minimum threshold for the number of times the pattern must
be found. When AsyncOS scans the message, it totals the “score” for the number of matches it finds in
the message and attachments. If the minimum threshold is not met, the regular expression does not
evaluate to true. You can specify this threshold for text, smart identifiers, or content dictionary terms.
