Prevent user from changing password

Open codingPotato21 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Summary

Hello, I thought such a function would exist for the mailcow UI unfortunately i couldn't find it. The idea is to prevent a user from being able to change their email account password themselves using the mailcow UI. Could there be a permission added to the mailbox user setup that will prevent them from changing the password themselves.

Motivation

Many companies including the one I am working in right now do not allow the user to change their own mail password for many reasons including security. Just like with other services including outlook and google mail we can prevent users from changing their own passwords. One of the many reasons is that sometimes companies have emails for example [email protected] that are used by multiple users sometimes 2-3. Most of the time these users are not technical so if one of them doesn't think clearly and changes that password of the email intentionally or by mistake it would lock the rest out of the email and require the admin or IT department to set a new one and have them update their clients.
