    Hi Anthony,

    By mistake I Accepted the solution, while it was NOT a soluiton.

     

    Yes, I had a look at the cookbook but that one is showing How to configure the Log Settings, which I already know and did long time back!

     

    I am wondering How can the Developers of "Fortinet"  do NOT have a Message Reference?!!

    AND

    How the could get passed and published without a proper documentation ?!

     

    Regards..

     

     

    Best Regards..

    Hi NCMS

    I'd like to help but I don't have such lab (FortiMail + syslog server).

    However what I'd do in my (imaginary) lab is just to simulate the cases you mentioned (spf failure, dkim fail, etc ...) and then to check on my syslog server for the related messages.

    Of course you need first to enable sending syslog events (with AntiSpam events) from FML to the syslog server.

    Hope it helps.
