What Mail System Are You Using?

What mail system are you using?

We are considering switching so another mail system other than what comes in the box. We are currently leaning towards hosting with Google, but we need to have a backup plan if we arn't able to do that.

Any suggestions?

Login Code

Does anybody know where the code is that writes the cookies when a user logs in?

We are attempting to write in a check on expired Active Directory passwords to force users to change their password if they log into the portal and their password is expired. The problem I'm having is that i have no access to their user name where I'm implementing the check. If i can write it in as another cookie at login i should be good to go.

Failed Login Attempts

Does anyone know if or where Luminis logs failed log-in attempts? I know it writes failed logins to the LDAP but I was curious if it also wrote the information to a log file anywhere.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Email Application Timestamp

We had a system crash a few weeks ago as a result of a TSM upgrade gone bad (apparently TSM 5.5 doesn't work with Windows 2000). 36 hours and $500 in Microsoft support later we got the portal back up and running. Since then, the timestamps shown in the email application are showing times listed in GMT (+6 hours of our time zone); however when you open the message it shows the correct time in the message header. I've searched and searched for the setting that defines the time zone for the email application and haven't found it.

Does anybody know where that value is stored?
