Some hacking attempts on our email server
|
||||
|
||||
**WE GET SEVERAL BRUTE FORCE ATTEMPTS EVERY DAY. IF THE HACKERS GET IN TO YOUR EMAIL ACCOUNT THEY WILL SEND SPAM AND THE CS DEPARTMENT WILL GET MAD AT US.** **Please use a secure password, otherwise we might have to restrict access to only people on the UCLA VPN.**

## Logging in
|
||||
|
||||
I am using the following settings with Thunderbird to get in. I haven't tried it with another email client but you are welcome to.
|
||||
|
||||
SMTP:
|
||||
|
||||
Server Name: mail.linux.ucla.edu
|
||||
|
||||
Port: 587
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
Look at all the hackers getting banned for too many failed login attempts!
|
||||
|
||||
Authentication method: Normal password
|
||||
|
||||
Connection security: STARTTLS
|
||||
|
||||
IMAP:
|
||||
|
||||
Server Name: mail.linux.ucla.edu
|
||||
|
||||
Port: 993
|
||||
|
||||
Authentication method: Normal Password
|
||||
|
||||
Connection security: SSL/TLS
|
||||
|
||||
## Changing your password
|
||||
|
||||
To change the password, please ssh into your web server and ssh to [your username]@10.0.0.10. Then use passwd to change your password.
|
||||
|
||||
(Yes we know, this is a pretty crappy and inelegant solution, but it's good enough for now)
