3. In a server mode Fortmail operates as a email server and inboxes can be located on it or on the external devices. There is a possibility of integration to directory services, and  POP3, IMAP and Webmail are also available.

Some of the characteristics of FortiMail are:

• The possibility of storing emails, quarantine and archives to local disks and NFS, iCSI  external devices
