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 change my email address or username?If your personal details have changed (for example, after getting married), you may wish to change your email address to reflect this. Before looking at altering your primary address though, you might consider adding or using one of your aliases as an extra email address. This can be useful if you would like to retain your old address in case you are still contacted on it. If you would like to set up an Alias for your account, you can find a help guide that goes in to the details of this here. Email Address Change If you still wish to update your email address, please contact our helpdesk from your alternative email account with details of what you would like it changed to. You can contact our helpdesk at help@aluminati.net After we start the process, it will take 24 hours before it is switched over. Once it is completed, a temporary alias of your old address will be automatically created for 30 days to give you a chance to inform your contacts about your new one. You will receive an automatic email confirmation at the start, and the next day when it completes. PLEASE NOTE: If you already own the email address in question as an alias but wish to use it as your primary account, then the alias will need to be changed or removed before we can begin, as the system will not allow use of an address that is already in use. Emails sent to your alias address during these 24 hours will bounce back to the sender. Username Change The procedure for changing your username is the same as for your email address, except the change is immediate rather than taking place the next day. It has no effect on your email address. Please contact our helpdesk at help@aluminati.net if you would like to change your Username. |
