Passwords Should Never Be Shared!

Never compromise your account by giving your password to anyone. If someone has your password, he/she can log in to your account, change your reply address or set up forwarding to another account to spam others. When that happens, your email messages will be lost - CCRI cannot recover messages that have been forwarded.

By sending your password in an e-mail, you compromise the entire CCRI email system by allowing scammers to spam others using your email address. CCRI will be blacklisted and other email users will be impacted.

If you suspect that your account is compromised... immediately change your password and reset your security question and answer.

If you have any problems call the IT Helpdesk at 825-1112.  Posted 5/8/08
