A FortiMail administrator is troubleshooting a problem where a legitimate bulk email sender is being blocked. The sender's IP is 198.51.100.20, and they send a high volume of mail. The administrator finds that the 'Maximum Concurrent Connections per IP' is set to 5, and the 'SMTP Timeout' is set to 30 seconds. The sender reports that their mail server is getting connection errors. What is the most likely cause of the issue?

The sender's IP is not in the 'Trusted Hosts' list, so relay is denied.

The delivery control rule for the sender's domain is set to 'Deny'.

The SMTP timeout of 30 seconds is too short, causing the sender's server to time out before completing the transaction.

The sender's mail server is exceeding the maximum concurrent connections limit of 5, causing new connections to be rejected.

What is the purpose of validating a TLS certificate on FortiMail?

To generate a new private key for the certificate

To encrypt the certificate with a stronger algorithm

To ensure the certificate is not expired and is signed by a trusted CA

To bind the certificate to a specific IP address

A FortiMail administrator needs to route outbound mail for a specific subdomain, 'marketing.example.com', to a third-party email service instead of the primary mail server. The primary domain 'example.com' should continue to use the normal route. What should be configured?

Create a delivery control rule that matches the recipient domain 'marketing.example.com' and sets the next-hop MTA to the third-party service.

Create a TLS policy for 'marketing.example.com' that specifies the third-party service as the destination.

Add 'marketing.example.com' to the 'Local Domain' list and configure a new SMTP listener for it.

Modify the DNS MX record for 'marketing.example.com' to point to the third-party service.

What is the purpose of configuring an SMTP session timeout on FortiMail?

To encrypt SMTP sessions after a certain time
