Managing Your Email Settings
Through myFRII you have the ability to change your password, list forwarding emails, and set up an automatic reply message, for when you are away.
To access these options, first login to myFRII using your full email address and password. You'll then be redirected to the Main Menu screen, which contains a table list of services you are currently using. Scroll to the bottom of the screen, and click on "Login Name" inside the services table, to the left of your email address.
You should now see a page with options listed for:
Changing Your Password
In the tools section of the user settings screen, select "Change password."
On the change password page, enter the password you'd like to use in the textfield labeled "New password." Then, to confirm this is the password you want, enter it again in the second field provided.
Make sure the password you use is at least 8 characters long, and is not a dictionary word, or any common name or commonly used word. Also, your password should have a mix of upper and lower case letters, along with one or more numbers or symbols. This is required for your security.
Please note that if you're email client automatically logs you in, you'll need to change the default password it uses. This also applies to browser-remembered passwords.
When you're finished, click "Change."
Forwarding Emails
In your settings you are given the option to have copies of your emails forwarded to one or more addresses of your choosing. To do this, begin by choosing "Forward emails" in the list of tools on your user settings page.
Near the bottom of the page, there should be a grey box with a series of textfields under the heading "Send copies of my mail to the following addresses." Use these boxes to add the email addresses you'd like to send copies to. Enter one address per field.
Note that because of blacklisting policies, emails with a comcast or aol address may not reach their intended destinations.
Among your email forwarding settings, you also have the option to select whether the original copy is removed, or left in tact when it's sent to your forward addresses. Under "Advanced Options," select "Yes" if you'd like to keep a copy of your emails in the original message box, and select "No" if you'd like it to only be sent to the addresses you've listed.
After you're satisfied with your settings, click "Change forwards."
Setting Up an Automatic Email Reply
If you're going to be away for a time, you can set it up so that you automatically reply to emails with a message of your choosing. To do this, begin by selecting "Automatic Email Reply" in the user settings screen.
Next, in the "Configure Auto-Responder" page, select an option from the "Enable Responder" dropdown list. There are three options to choose from:
- No, I want my auto-responder off
- Yes, I want my auto-responder on
- Yes, enable my auto-responder between specific dates
If the the third option is chosen, you'll also need to modify the settings in the "Advanced Options" box.
First decide the frequency you'd like to respond to unique email addresses by selecting an option from the first dropdown menu. Then select a start and end date from the date fields at the bottom of the page. You can also set it so that the responder automatically removes any message it replies to. This option should by set to "No, do not delete the original message," for most cases.
Make sure to enter a "Message subject," and text in the "Message body," and then click "Set Auto-Response."
