If the control panel password of any organization user including the organization administrator is about to expire, an email is sent to the user informing it to change its password before the expiration date.

 

An email template named Password Expiry Alert is used to send the password expiration information to the users. You can change the format or content of this template displayed on the Email Settings page.
