There are two programmable system security features that are designed to maintain the
confidentiality of subscribers’ messages, ensure the integrity of the mail system, and protect the
communications system against toll fraud abuse. These features are:
Passwords
Security Violation Notification
Minimum Password Length ( ✔ = 6)
Every Call Answer Service mailbox (including the System Administrator’s Mailbox), Transfer-Only
mailbox, and Bulletin Board mailbox has a password. The System Administrator can select the
minimum password length, which can be from 0 to 15 digits. Every mailbox password (including the
System Administrator’s Mailbox password) and the System Administration Password must meet the
length requirement established by this setting.
Security Alert:
Use the most restrictive values that the business allows. Use Lock the Mailbox unless it is too
restrictive for the business. Use Send a Warning Message otherwise. Using No Security
Violation Notification is strongly discouraged.
Security Violation Notification
The System Administrator can select the maximum number of consecutive unsuccessful attempts to
log in that are allowed and the action to be taken when that maximum number is exceeded.
Security Alert:
