FAQ: Why Rayservers?
FAQ: How do I change my e-mail password Visit the e-mail control panel linked at the top of this page, login with your full email address and current password. Once logged in, click the blue Edit link beside your email address and set your new password, enter it again for confirmation and click submit. If you have forgotten your password order a password reset. We verify the account holder by a phone call. We cannot reset your PGP password as you are in full control of your PGP keys. FAQ: Email attachments on Webmail Due to a bug in the upstream PHP+Webmail software, the webmail software is reporting that mail with attachments is not sent due to a timeout. Please carbon copy (cc) your own email address and check that you got a copy. If you did, the mail was actually sent. FAQ: Roundcube/Webmail 2 Sent Folder Setting
FAQ: About SecurityTrue communication security happens on your computer. The security product must be open source (no back doors). The operating system and virus checker, if any, must be secure. If you must use Windows, use an open source virus checker like Clamwin. Any message encryption must happen on your computer and the decryption on your correspondent's computer. OpenPGP satisfies these tests for email, OTR for instant message and ZRTP for voice. Lock us out! Ubuntu Linux is the easiest to use open source operating system out there - easier than Mac or Windows. You can run Windows in a VirtualBox inside Ubuntu - at the same time. You can 100% encrypt the hard drive right from the alternate install CD. Ubuntu has OpenPGP, OTR, and ZRTP straight out of the box as well as a full office suite. You have nothing but your fear to lose. Use the diceware method for secure, memorable passphrases. At least 5 words for 64 bit security. 10 word passphrases give you 128 bit security. For the technically savvy and impatient, a perl based diceware program is available. Use a decent cross platform password manager. Read Travis' Security Concepts.

FAQ: Backups FAQ: I sent a test, it is not here yet! To prevent spam, our servers use greylisting to verify that the sending SMTP server implements the internet SMTP standard. This results in a delay of up to 30 mins on the first email. Subsequent email will be 'instant' so long as sending server remains in compliance. Remember, per its specification, email is not instant messaging. Always verify that critical correspondence reaches by a phone call or instant message and a human response. |
