Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C160 Mode D'Emploi

You cannot use smart identifiers with the 

edit-body-text()

 filter at this time.

While RFC 2822 defines a text format for email messages, there are extensions 
(such as MIME) to provide the transport of other content within an RFC 2822 
message. AsyncOS can now use the 

html-convert()

 message filter to convert 

HTML to plain text using the following syntax:

Convert_HTML_Filter:

if (true)

{

html-convert();

}

The IronPort message filters make a determination on whether a given MIME part 
is considered a message “body” or a message “attachment”. The 

html-convert()

 

filter only works on the message body parts. For more information about message 
bodies and attachments, see 

Depending on the format, the

 html-convert()

 filter uses different methods to 

strip the HTML from within the documents.

If the message is plain text (text/plain), the message passes through the filter 
unchanged. If the message is a simple HTML message (text/html), all the HTML 
tags are stripped out of the message and the resulting body replaces the HTML 
message. The lines are not reformatted, and the HTML is not rendered in plain 
text. If the structure is MIME (with a multipart/alternative structure) and it 
contains both a text/plain part and text/html part with the same content, the filter 
removes the text/html part of the message and leaves the text/plain part of the 
message. For all other MIME types (such as multipart/mixed), all HTML body 
parts are stripped of their tags and reinserted into the message.
