Valid FQDN formats ?

Hello, I saw that the valid FQDN formats include: • <host_name>.<top_level_domain_name> such as example.com • <host_name>.<second_level_domain_name>.<top_level_domain_name>, such as mail.example.com Does it mean that FQDN can be used with one subdomain level only? I would like to create a FQDN Address Object for "imap.mail.me.com". Can I use "imap.mail.me.com"? Or do I have to use "mail.me.com" or "*mail.me.com" or "*.mail.me.com" (and IMAP Service in my rule)? Regards, Chris

Key word used in the quoted description is "include" -- reread the article in full -- you can use any FQDN that is resolvable by DNS.
