Operation Modes

Gateway Mode   Provides inbound and outbound proxy mail transfer agent (MTA) services for existing email gateways. A simple DNS MX record change redirects email to FortiMail for analysis. FortiMail then relays safe email to its destination email server for delivery.   Microsoft 365 API Integration     FortiMail can be deployed out of line to simplify deployment, so no MX record change is required, and leverage the native Microsoft 365 API to deliver threat detection and postdelivery message clawback. Broad flexibility is possible with clawback to create policies that address compliance or unique business requirements, such as building search parameters based on keywords, file name, or content type. These capabilities can serve as powerful complements to native Microsoft security features to bolster overall efficacy and reduce risk.   Transparent Mode   Transparent mode eliminates the need to change the DNS MX record, or to change the existing email server network configuration. Transparent mode is particularly appealing for service providers that want to extend email security services to their customer bases. Not available with FortiMail Cloud.   Server Mode   The FortiMail device acts as a standalone messaging server with full SMTP email server functionality, including flexible support for secure POP3, IMAP, and WebMail access.
