Logging in to the Mail Express Administration Page

Mail Express administrators can log in to Mail Express on the log-in page (e.g., https://<hostname>/admin). When you log in to the administration page, your credentials are validated against the list of administrators stored in the Mail Express database.

To log in to Mail Express

1. Click the shortcut on Mail Express Server or type the URL of Mail Express Server in your web browser. The Mail Express Server Log-in page appears.

2. In the Username box, provide the username you created when you installed Mail Express Server. (The username is case sensitive.)

3. In the Password box, provide the password you created when you installed Mail Express Server. (The password is case sensitive.)

   If you have forgotten your password, click the Lost Password link and follow the prompts. After you click Continue, your account password will be reset and a new, random password, with "Change password at next log in" enabled, will be emailed to you. If you click Cancel, your password is not reset. Password reset actions are logged to the database.

4. If you want Mail Express to remember your username, select the Remember Me check box. The username will be remembered for the next 30 days.

5. If you want to clear the boxes and start over, click Reset.

6. Click Sign in.

   • If login was successful, the Mail Express Status page appears.

   • If login failed, you have the option to reset your password. If you click Reset, a temporary password is emailed to the address specified when you created the account.

   All attempted logins are audited. Information captured includes the event time and date, username, successful or unsuccessful login, and IP address from which the login attempt was made.
