This error usually occurs after a restore from a backup or a server move.

We will need to reset the master key which encrypts your email passwords for you which will mean everyone will need to re-enter their email passwords before they will be able to send emails.

Please contact us via the Access Digital Assistant, referencing the title of this article.

⚠️ Important: Remember that everyone will need to re-enter their eMail passwords!!
