This topic describes how to enable the third-party client security password in domain management page.
Email is a kind of open product. Open means that the global mailbox service supports a common standard protocol to access its own service by default, which is expressed in the form that users can use any third-party clients such as Outlook or Foxmail to access any mailbox, but the deficiency is that the standard protocol only supports the authentication mode of "account + password".
If the enterprise allows employees to log in to the mailbox in the third-party client while ensuring the security, please enable the third-party client security password.
What Is The Third-party Client Security Password?
The logon password of the third-party client is an independent password used by the Alibaba Mail account to log on to the third-party email client.
Operation Method:
1. Use the postmaster account to log on to the Alibaba Mail and enter the domain management page. Click Security> Account Security Strategy.
2. Enable the Enforce Security Password, select the Setting Range, and click Add Exceptions> select> Select Department or Account.
3. After the settings are complete, click Save in the upper-left corner.
4. After enabled, the employees need to generate a new password on Webmail, and then log in to the third-party client with the new password. Please refer to How to Open and Use The Third-party Client Security Password?
