An Update on our Email for Life Security and Older Email Clients
14:21 on 16th Sep
We previously announced in May that we were making some changes to our Email for Life security settings and how it may affect those of you who use older email clients to access your messages. To enable users with older clients to have continued service for a period of time, we reverted the changes but noted that we would continue rolling out these required security changes later this year.
In the first week of October, we will be fully rolling out these security changes to all Email for Life services. We would urge all our Email for Life customers to update your operating systems and email clients to the latest versions to guarantee future compatibility.
As a guide, the following email client versions and later should be considered the minimum requirements:
Outlook 2003 on Windows 8.1
Outlook 2016 on OSX 10.11
MacMail on OSX 10.12
Mail on iOS 11
Mail on Android 5
Outlook 2016 on OSX 10.11
MacMail on OSX 10.12
Mail on iOS 11
Mail on Android 5
For the technical among you, if your email client supports TLS version 1.2 you should see no disruption to your service via an email client.
If you require any support on this matter or have any questions, please send a message to our Helpdesk support team via the normal support routes available through your Email for Life service.
How can we help you?How do I renew a FREE subscription?From 28 days before your account renewal date, you will start receiving reminder emails. If you choose to downgrade, your account will be automatically renewed each year for free, unless it is upgraded in the meantime. To renew your Account with the Free Webmail Package, log in and go to the My Account dashboard. If you are logged in to your webmail inbox, you can access My Account by clicking on the button in the top right of the page. On the My Account page, you will be able to click on Email Accounts on the left. This will show you all the email accounts you currently own. If any of your Email Accounts are due for renewal, a yellow Renew button will be shown. You can click this button to renew the subscription on your Account.
You will be presented with a range of Packages and Bolt-Ons that you can add to your Account. To renew with the Free Webmail Package, simply click Select under the Free Webmail option.
This will add the Free Webmail Package to your basket. Click either Basket or Checkout at the top of the page to continue.
The next page will display the details of the Free Webmail account you are renewing. Click on Confirm Free Account to complete the renewal. A red warning box may be shown if you are downgrading from a paid subscription.
*BEFORE DOWNGRADING* Please check your current quota usage. If you are using more than 200MB, then downgrading will push your account over quota and may prevent you from receiving new emails. You can learn more about Quota usage here. You will also no longer be able to use an email program or app such as Outlook or a mobile phone with your email account.
