Configuring the block lists and safe lists
The AntiSpam > Block/Safe List submenu lets you reject, discard, or allow email messages based on email addresses, domain names, and IP addresses. It also lets you back up and restore the block lists and safe lists.
Multiple types of block lists and safe lists exist: system-wide, per-domain, per-user, and per-session profile. There are several places in the web UI where you can configure these block lists and safe lists.
• For per-user block lists and safe lists, you can alternatively go to
User > User > User Preferences. For details, see
“Configuring user preferences”.
• For session profile block lists and safe lists, go to
Profile > Session > Session and modify the session profile. For details, see
“Configuring session profiles”.
| In addition to FortiMail administrators being able to configure per-user block lists and safe lists, email users can configure their own per-user block list and safe list by going to the Preferences tab in FortiMail webmail. For more information, see the online help for FortiMail webmail. |
All block and safe list entries are automatically sorted into alphabetical order, where wildcard characters (* and ?) and numbers sort before letters.
