Remarks

Event handlers are registered at the site or site collection level to implement filtering to respond to list item events. Filtering allows multiple rules to be applied in sequence to limit the size of a list or some other dimension of that list. They are specified in persistent storage as name-value pairs in the form of assignment statements.
