Unblocking Email Accounts

Summary

Instructions for enabling sign-in for an email account when it has been blocked.

Body

Issue/Question

When I try to sign into my email account I get a message that says the sign-in has been disabled. 

Environment

  • WKU Email

Cause

The sign-in to the account has been blocked. This could be due to the account being compromised, or Microsoft's security detection locking the account preemptively due to a spike in behavior, such as sending more than 100 messages in a short time. 

Resolution

If you are unable to sign into your email account as sign-in has been blocked, please contact the ITS Service Desk.
