-===== I received an email notification about my user’s account being compromised. What should I do? ===== 
- 
-=== Question: === 
-I received an email notification about my user’s account being compromised, such as below.\\ 
-   We have noticed that one of your account xxx@domain.com has been sending hundreds of illegal 
-   spam email starting at [date]. 
-   We believed that the user computer has been compromised (infected with spyware or virus). 
-   We have changed the user's password to prevent the account being used for illegal activities,  
-   and you may need to cleanup/reinstall the system as soon. 
-   DO NOT use the previous password as it has already been exposed. 
-What should I do?\\ 
- 
-=== Answer: === 
-When your VO user is compromised, the system will reset the user's account password to prevent the account to be further used for illegal activities such as email spamming.\\ 
-To enable the user to access his/her account again, you as the Administrator may: 
-  * Advice the user to **run a virus scan** on his/her computer to cleanup any spyware or threats. 
-  * **Reset the user account password** via Avomaster/voadmin account ([[faq:administrator:managing_user_accounts#how_to_reset_a_user_password|learn how]]). 
- 
-Please do not use the previous password as it has already been compromised.

-===== I received notification about my user’s mailbox getting full.  How can I help them? ===== 
- 
-You are getting this email notification because your user's mailbox is almost or already exceeded the available email quota. ([[faq:email:email_basics#what_is_mailbox_getting_full_notification|More info on Mailbox Getting Full Notification]]) 
- 
-You may advice the user to clear some emails on the webmail or [[faq:administrator:managing_user_accounts:adjusting_user_email_space|increase your user's email disk space]].\\ 
-If the user is accessing emails from POP3 email client e.g. Ms Outlook, you may advice the user to set to download-and-delete the emails. 
- 
-Do ensure sufficient quota has been allocated for the user's account, especially for the more active ones-- the ones that are getting constant notification on mailbox getting full.
