The rule group name will be automatically entered.
In this procedure, you cannot change the rule group name.
If you want to edit the rule group name, refer to the following article:
Editing Rule Groups
3.2. Rule Name

This content will be applied to the insertion tag ((%RULE-NAME%)) available for use in notifications (filters).
※ Rule name must be within 256 characters.

If set to [Do not send automatically], it will be automatically deleted after 10 days if neither held nor deleted.
If you check [Allow sender address group members to perform the operation], other users belonging to the same address group as the sender can perform actions (view, send, delete).
・Approval Request: Sent emails are held until approval by the approver previously set in the address group is obtained.
If no approval is obtained within 10 days, it will be automatically deleted.
