Client IP address

Client IP address

The client_ip field is in FortiMail log messages where either:

  • type=statistics

  • type=spam

  • type=virus

except for messages about quarantine access.

The field indicates the SMTP client's IP address. This could be an email user's software, a mail relay, or a mail server.

This field is empty if the log message is not recorded during an SMTP session, such as for log messages about the FortiSandbox scan queue.
