I think that is what he's trying to avoid doing as I understood his post. Perhaps I misunderstood the request, but that is why I indicated that he lower the amount of time until auto resetting the lockout condition.

Any suspended accounts will be listed here and can be re-enabled. If the account has been disabled (which is a permanent lockout due to repeated suspensions), select the account from the User Administration page and select 'Modify'. You can then deselect the 'Account is disabled' option. If you have any trouble finding these two features, let me know. Have a good one, Christian -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Allen Armstrong Sent: Thursday, December 02, 2004 4:05 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Too many password attempts Hi, No I am looking for way through the web interface to re-enable a locked out account.
