โ FAQ
I forgot my password โ what do I do?
Go to pfa.rbpgroup.net/users/login.php (the PostfixAdmin mailbox login) and use the password-recovery option โ this works if you registered a second (recovery) email address with us. If you didn't, or the recovery email never arrives, contact us and we'll reset it after verifying it's you.
Are my email and Nextcloud the same account?
Currently they're separate logins (usually the same username). We're working on unified accounts as part of the new portal.
Mail says "authentication failed" but my password is right
Most common cause: the mail app saved an old password. Delete the account from the app and re-add it with the settings above. If it persists, contact us โ repeated failures can trigger our attack protection on your IP.
Where is my data, physically?
Hong Kong. All servers are in a Hong Kong data center, operated by RBP Group. Nothing is stored with third-party cloud providers.
How do I share files with someone who doesn't have an account?
In Nextcloud: right-click a file or folder โ Share โ "Share link". You can set a password and expiry date on the link.
