Email address
The FortiGate unit uses the email address list to filter incoming email. The FortiGate
unit compares the email address or domain of the sender to the list in sequence. If a
match is found, the corresponding protection profile action is taken. If no match is
found, the email is passed on to the next spam filter.
You can use Perl regular expressions or wildcards to add email address patterns to
the list. See
“Using Perl regular expressions” on page 350
.
