Trash in FortiMail Personal Quarantine missing

Hi,

 

our FortiMail operates in gateway mode. When users are logged into their personal quarantine and delete a mail from the inbox a notification pops up telling users that the mail has been moved to trash. However, users do not see a trash folder.

I've talked to other users of other FortiMail customers and some have a trash in their personal quarantine. They do not know why though. I explored all clickable UI features within the personal quarantine and also went through the FortiMail documentation but found nothing about this topic. That's why I decided to share this with the community.

 

Any ideas why this is, are highly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi

Is trash folder invisible for other users as well?

I've not yet found a user who has a trash folder in our environment.

I'm actually not sure if the trash folder exists when FML is in gateway mode. If I'm not wrong I think it exists only in server mode.

Unfortunately I currently don't have a lab to double-check.
