Spam filtering options<br />

Figure 216:Protection profile spam filtering options<br />

Note: NNTP options cannot be selected. Support will be added in the future.<br />

The following options are available for spam filtering through the protection profile.<br />

FortiGuard<br />

Antispam<br />

IP address<br />

check<br />

URL check<br />

E-mail<br />

checksum<br />

check<br />

Spam<br />

submission<br />

Enable or disable the FortiGuard Antispam filtering IP<br />

address blacklist. FortiGuard Antispam extracts the SMTP<br />

mail server source address and sends the IP address to a<br />

FortiGuard Antispam server to see if this IP address<br />

matches the list of known spammers. If the IP address is<br />

found, FortiGuard Antispam terminates the session. If<br />

FortiGuard Antispam does not find a match, the mail<br />

server sends the email to the recipient.<br />

See “FortiGuard Antispam Service” on page 187 for more<br />

information about this service.<br />

Enable or disable the FortiGuard Antispam spam filtering<br />

URL blacklist. FortiGuard Antispam checks the body of<br />

email messages to extract any URL links. These URL links<br />

are sent to a FortiGuard Antispam server to see if any are<br />

listed. Spam messages often contain URL links to<br />

advertisements (also called spamvertizing). If a URL<br />

match is found, FortiGuard Antispam terminates the<br />

session. If FortiGuard Antispam does not find a match, the<br />

mail server sends the email to the recipient.<br />

See “FortiGuard Antispam Service” on page 187 for more<br />

information about this service.<br />

Enable or disable the FortiGuard Antispam email message<br />

checksum blacklist. If enabled, this filter calculates the<br />

checksum of an email message and sends this checksum<br />

to the FortiGuard servers to determine if the checksum is<br />

in the blacklist. The <strong>FortiGate</strong> unit then passes or<br />

marks/blocks the email message according to the server<br />

response.<br />

When enabled, all e-mail messages marked as spam have<br />

a link added to the message body. If an email message is<br />

not spam, simply click the link in the message to inform<br />

FortiGuard of the false positive.<br />
