[FortiMail] message with scanned attachment always ends in the quarantine and is not released

Hello,

I haven't find a solution, how can I set a policy that all scanned e-mails that do not contain harmful attachments or content will not be forwarded and remain in the quarantine, but will after the scan, be delivered to the recipient?

Hello

If I understand well your request you have an issue like your received e-mails with attachment are all put in quarantine, right? If so then you have probably a misconfiguration in your content profile.

Please share a screenshot of your content profile that is used on the affected policy.

Hello @AEK 

 

we have a policy that when an e-mail has a suspicious attachment or content, then is scanned by fortisandox and moslty all those messages are then quarantined.

is there any option to set the policy so, that when the attachment then is declared as not malicious, that the recipient can get the e-mail message normally delivered?

  • When the mail is quarantined is it because FortiSandbox returns that the scanned file is malicious, high risk, low risk, ...?
  • Can you share a screenshot of the antivirus profile you are using in the affected policy?
  • What you see in the log of the quarantined mail (monitor > log)? There you can click on the mail session id to see more details and why it was blocked.

Hi Muri

I see the AV profile looks fine, also from logs I don't see the mail is being quarantined, the last 3 lines show that it is sent to the mail server, right?

The idea is to look in logs of a quarantined mail for the reason why it is being quarantined. Can you check for this?

On the other hand did you try to disable FortiSandbox check, or just set scan mode to "Submit only"? This can be useful to check if the mails are (or are not) quarantined because of FSA.
