Logging in to SpamExperts

Access SpamExperts using the URL and credentials you have been provided.

Logging In

On the appropriate Login page for your user type, enter your credentials:

Super-admin (SpamExperts Local Cloud only)

A Super-Admin user has full access to the Local Cloud, including all configured domains, users, and to settings that apply to the entire Local Cloud, and to the Control Panel API. One Super-Admin user will have been provided by your N-able Account Manager, and you can create more as required; all super-admins have the same full access to the Local Cloud. A super-admin user may view and change settings and logs for any admin, domain, or mailbox. We strongly recommend that you limit the IP addresses from which super-admin users may log in, and require 2FA for all super-admin users.

Information on adding Super-Admin users can be found in Add a Super-Admin User

Admin

Sub-Admin

A Sub-Admin user is an Admin user that belongs to a higher level (“parent”) Admin.

Technician

Domain

Email

If you are unsure what user level you are logged in as, you can find this by checking in the upper left hand corner of the screen. Here you will see the username with which you are logged in and the user level.

Forgotten Passwords

Too many failed login attempts will cause the account to be locked to prevent abuse. To recover the account, you must reset the password or contact your administrator.

Control Panel

Once you are logged in, you are presented with the application Control Panel. There are three different Control Panel views in SpamExperts and the one you see (and what it contains) depends on your user level and the access permissions for this level.

The following Control Panel levels are available:

  • Admin Level Control Panel - Available to Admin, Sub-Admin and Technician users.
  • Domain Level Control Panel - Available to Domain users and also Admin, Sub-Admin and Technician users with the correct permissions.
  • Email Level Control Panel - Available to Email users and also Admin, Sub-Admin, Technician and Domain users with the correct permissions.

Some features are available only to certain Control Panel levels, but some are shared among different Control Panel levels.

For an overview of the SpamExperts interface, see Application Overview.
