Advanced Email Filter configuration covers only command line interface (CLI) commands
not represented in the web-based manager. For complete descriptions and examples of
how to use CLI commands, see the
Use this command to configure email filtering based on the MIME (Multipurpose Internet
Mail Extensions) header. MIME header filtering is enabled within each protection profile.
The FortiGate unit compares the MIME header key-value pair of incoming email to the list
pair in sequence. If a match is found, the corresponding action is taken. If no match is
found, the email is passed on to the next spam filter.
