Anti-SPAM Whitelist

[Brainwalk]

I have in the Anti-Spam profile a WhiteList entry like

Type: Email Wildcard

Pattern: *@domain.com

Action: Mark as Clear

Status: enable

But still EMails from this Domain are blocked with the Message: smtp helo/ehlo domain name DNS check failed.

How can i solve this without setting the Source-IP on WhiteList?

Which version of FortiOS are you running. I have a similar problems running 5.4.4. The whitelist seems to be ignored.

Maybe the solution:

CLI:

config spamfilter profile

edit "spamfilter"

  config smtp

  set local-override enable

end

Your tip fixed the problem. Thanks for your input.

I am trying to find out in which version the bit flipped because it always worked perfectly until recently after applying some updates on the fortigate.
