[05] WHEN AND HOW ARE ACCOUNTS EXPIRED?
|
||
|
|
||
|
user (both prevalidated and validated) accounts are the only login
|
||
|
accounts subject to automated purges. These purges occur monthly and
|
||
|
are based on your last UNIX login time if you are validated, or the
|
||
|
number of days since your account was created if you are prevalidated.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Prevalidated accounts are automatically purged whether they are in
|
||
|
use or not approximately 600 days of their creation. Validated accounts
|
||
|
will expire if the user does not login at least once during a 2 year
|
||
|
period.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ARPA members are exempt from inactivity purges, though an ARPA member
|
||
|
may lose their membership by violating the AUP. When disk space becomes
|
||
|
an issue, ARPA members who have not logged in for 1 year or longer may
|
||
|
have their files compressed. No files will be deleted and the user is
|
||
|
welcome to login an uncompress files as needed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Keep in mind that using SDF for only webmail or pop3/imap service does
|
||
|
not log you in to the UNIX system. You will have to login to the shell
|
||
|
account regularly to avoid being flagged as an inactive account.
