Compliance Accelerator - Excluding External E-mail Addresses from Search Results (End User Question)

For Compliance Accelerator (CA), when a search is run, I often end up with 30-40% of the review set being from a few e-mail news groups. 

While I don't want to block them as spam/junk mail from the employee mailboxes, is there a way to identify to CA specific addresses which are to be excluded from the search and resulting review set? 

Thanks

     The CA Reviewers guide for that version says this:

    An address or display name preceded by a hyphen and enclosed in quotation marks, such as "-john.doe@example.com". Use this form to exclude the address from the search. 

     

    You could try that.

    Not sure...

    What we are trying to do is only search e-mail that goes to, or comes from an external source (i.e., external inbound, external outbound).

    As such under "Authors and Recipients" I am selecting "Inbound","Outbound", and then "internal/external" rather than "Other Departments".  (As soon as you select "internal/external", the free form boxes go away.) Then I am selecting "External to Organization".

    In reading the guide, I am under the impression that "Other Departments" limits you to internal only. Am I wrong on that?

    Thanks

    I don't believe it will limit unless you are using Dept. Partitions. I would give it a quick test to verify, but I think it will work.
