For example, the default for Days before password expiry on which to notify the user by mail is 1,5,14. This means that the reminder process will start 14 days before the password expires. The Abiquo platform will display a warning and send a reminder email to the user. It will then send another email 5 days before the password expires and a final email 1 day before the password expires.

The email is sent using the same email system as other platform messages. To configure email messages, see Customize email and SMS messages and for the details for this feature, see Customize emails to notify password expiration v620.
