How do I turn Postini back on for a mailbox?

Note: If you've requested for us to turn off Postini for your entire organization, you will need to contact us to have Postini re-enabled for your account before you can enable/disable Postini for specific accounts.


  1. Log into Postini using the postmaster e-mail address for your domain name (eg, postmaster@yourdomain.com).

    Click here to open the Postini login screen in a new window.

    If you don't remember your Postini password for the postmaster user, please see our FAQ on resetting Postini passwords.

  2. When prompted, select System Administration to go to the Postini System Administration screen for your organization.
  3. You will now see a heading near the top left called Choose Org (see below). Your account will generally already have been selected. If multiple accounts/organizations are associated with your postmaster user, you can select them from the pop-up for use the "Show Hierarchy" link to view a full list.

  4. Click on Orgs And Users tab in the top Postini navigation bar, and then select the Users subheading (see below).


    You'll see a listing of all users in your organization. You can click on a name in the list of users to change settings. If you have more than a few e-mail addresses, it might be easier to type the address into the "Find User" blank and click "Search" for a targeted list (see below).

  5. You'll see an information screen for that user. You can use the "Reset User" button near the top to disable a Postini account.

    You'll be asked to confirm in the next screen -- click "Continue." You'll be returned back to the user overview screen.

You'll be returned to the helpdesk screen, with a message near the top confirming the account has been reset. The user will recieve a Postini welcome message as soon as a suspected piece of spam hits their mailbox.
