About the connector

Fortinet FortiMail is an email security gateway product that monitors email messages on behalf of an organization to identify messages that contain malicious content, including spam, malware and phishing attempts.

This document provides information about the Fortinet FortiMail connector, which facilitates automated interactions, with your Fortinet FortiMail server using FortiSOAR™ playbooks. Add the Fortinet FortiMail connector, as a step in FortiSOAR™ playbooks and perform automated operations such as retrieving a list of all domains configured on Fortinet FortiMail and retrieving the sender blacklist and whitelist for session profiles.

  • ACK EOM before AntiSpam check: Select the Enable option to acknowledge the end of message (EOM) signal immediately after receiving the carriage return and line feed (CRLF) characters that indicate the EOM, rather than waiting for antispam scanning to complete.
Lists Select this option to configure the sender and recipient block lists and safe lists, if any, to sue with the session profile. Block and safe lists are separate for each session profile, and apply only to traffic controlled by the IP-based policy to which the session profile is applied. Once you select this option, you can configure the following additional parameters:
  • Enable sender safelist checking: Select the Enable option to check the sender addresses in the email envelope (MAILFROM:) and email header (From:) against the safe list in the SMTP sessions to which this profile is applied.
  • Enable sender blocklist checking: Select the Enable option to check the sender addresses in the email envelope (MAIL FROM:) and email header (From:) against the block list in the SMTP sessions to which this profile is applied

Lists Select this option to configure the sender and recipient block lists and safe lists, if any, to sue with the session profile. Block and safe lists are separate for each session profile, and apply only to traffic controlled by the IP-based policy to which the session profile is applied. Once you select this option, you can configure the following additional parameters:
  • Enable sender safelist checking: Select the Enable option to check the sender addresses in the email envelope (MAILFROM:) and email header (From:) against the safe list in the SMTP sessions to which this profile is applied.
  • Enable sender blocklist checking: Select the Enable option to check the sender addresses in the email envelope (MAIL FROM:) and email header (From:) against the block list in the SMTP sessions to which this profile is applied
  • Allow recipients on this list: Select the Enable option to check the recipient addresses in the email envelope (RCPT TO:) against the safe list in the SMTP sessions to which this profile is applied.
  • Disallow recipients on this list: Select the Enable option to check the recipient addresses in the email envelope (RCPT TO:) against the block list in the SMTP sessions to which this profile is applied.

Included playbooks

The Sample - Fortinet Fortimail - 1.0.0 playbook collection comes bundled with the Fortinet FortiMail connector. These playbooks contain steps using which you can perform all supported actions. You can see bundled playbooks in the Automation > Playbooks section in FortiSOAR™ after importing the Fortinet FortiMail connector.

Note: If you are planning to use any of the sample playbooks in your environment, ensure that you clone those playbooks and move them to a different collection since the sample playbook collection gets deleted during connector upgrade and delete.
