Do you want to secure your email address so that you can be sure that only you have access to it at all times? Have you been hacked and want to cut off access to your email address to any outsider as quickly as possible?
Follow our advice in this documentation to make sure your email address is secure.
Email software needs to use specific protocols in order to function.
By blocking the POP, IMAP and SMTP protocols, you ensure that only the Roundcube Webmail offered by LWS will allow your email address to be consulted and used to send emails.
Protocol blocks do not affect the use of webmail.
To set up this type of block, please follow this documentation.
As LWS webmail is the only tool that can now be used to access your email address, it is important to ensure that access is completely secure.
To do this, you can activate two-factor authentication. This allows you to link a code sent to your email address or to an application on your phone to the password you enter to log in.
The holder of the password for your email address alone will not be able to log in.
To set up two-factor authentication on your email address, please follow this documentation
