Change in transport rule condition

Update Rollup 9 for Exchange 2007 SP1 includes a change to the “when the Subject field or the body of the message contains text patterns” condition that is used to create a transport rule.  Previously, this condition matched any strings that contained the word that was specified. For example, if you defined “change” as the specific word, any strings that contained “change,” such as “Exchange” or “changes,” would be considered a match. Starting with Update Rollup 9 for Exchange 2007 SP1, this condition is matched only by the actual word, where “word” is defined as any group of letters or digits that are surrounded by non-word characters.  Non-word characters are characters other than letters or digits.

Given this change, if you intend for an existing rule to match only the actual word, no action is required. Existing rules will be recompiled after Update Rollup 9 or Exchange 2007 SP2 is installed and the Microsoft Exchange Transport service is restarted.  However, any rules that are based on the old behavior (pattern match) will not work after Update Rollup 9 is installed.  In this case, you must rebuild your transport rules to specify that a subject, body, from address, or header contains text patterns instead of specific words. For example, to obtain a pattern match rather than a word match, a transport rule that contains a "when the from address contains specific words" condition must be changed to "when the from address contains text patterns."
