Explanation

Both Message Filters and Content Filters on the Cisco ESA support the use of custom dictionaries to match specific words or phrases (such as profanity) within email messages. Message Filters (A) are applied early in the email pipeline before mail policies, using a rule-based scripting language that can reference dictionaries to take actions on matching messages. Content Filters (E) are configured within mail policies and also support dictionary-based conditions, allowing more granular policy-based control. Spam filters (B) use statistical and reputation-based detection, not custom dictionaries. VOF (C) - Virus Outbreak Filters - targets malware outbreaks. Sender Groups (D) classify senders by reputation or IP, not message content.
