FortiMail VM02 doubles the compute entitlement of the entry-level VM01 license, running on up to 2 licensed
vCPUs. It's designed for small to midsized organizations that need more headroom for mailbox count, message
volume, and advanced threat protection features like Data Loss Prevention and Centralized Quarantine. VM02
supports up to 70 protected email domains and roughly 400 server-mode mailboxes, and it's the smallest
FortiMail VM tier with optional Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace email API integration. Like the rest of the
FortiMail VM family, it deploys on the same range of on-premises hypervisors and public clouds.
