Warning · If a token leaked, revoke it instead

An emergency stop doesn't revoke tokens. During the stop, a leaked token can still read received mail, and after you resume it can send again. Revoke that token.

Before you start

  • Owners and admins can stop sending. Only owners can resume a whole-organization stop.

Mail blocked during the stop doesn't go out automatically when you resume.

Stop one agent

  1. Open Overview

    Open the agent's Overview and scroll to the Emergency stop row at the bottom.

  2. Stop

    Choose Stop and confirm.

To resume, choose Resume in the same place. Sending follows the policy again. An agent that Atmark operators put on hold can't be resumed from the console; contact support.

Stop the whole organization

  1. Open Settings

    Go to Settings › Emergency stop.

  2. Stop everything

    Choose Stop the whole organization and confirm. A banner at the top of every screen says emergency stop is on for the whole organization.

To resume, an owner chooses Resume under Settings › Emergency stop. Admins can turn on a whole-organization stop but can't lift it.

Operator freeze

If a banner says Atmark operators froze sending for your organization, an operator stopped it. Resuming from your side won't lift it. Contact support.
