Knowledge base

This guide details the different identifiers used for access to Infomaniak.

Manager & kMail (Webmail)

The username and password used to connect to the Manager (administration console for your products) and to kMail webmail (online messaging interface to use one or more email addresses) are not necessarily the same as those used for an email account hosted by Infomaniak (see below), even if in both cases it is an email address and even if it is identical.

Email service

To use an email address, you must know at least its title and password. These may look like your Infomaniak connection identifier but in reality they are 2 different things.

To remember

In summary, you have:

• 1 identifier (in the form of an email address) and 1 password to access
  • at kMail  https://mail.infomaniak.com/
  • to the Manager https://manager.infomaniak.com/

• 1 password for each email address hosted at Infomaniak

These two pieces of information can be identical or not according to your choice or according to whether it has been unified or not. And if you change one, it won't necessarily change the other.

Example

It is for example possible to connect to the Manager with an email address not managed by Infomaniak: email@microsoft.fr
This Infomaniak connection identifier will have its own password and the microsoft.fr address will have its own.
It's the same if the address was email@domainechezinfomaniak.ch and it was managed on the Infomaniak servers.

Similarly, the password used to connect to the Manager can be "pAssW8ox3C" while the password for your Infomaniak email address is, for example, "h6Kcy34rT".

This guide explains how to move from organisation to another via your Manager.

2. At the top left, click on the arrow pointing downwards
   
   


3. In the drop-down menu displayed, click on the name of the current organisation to display the list of the organisations to which you have access
   
   


4. Select the organisation you wish to access
5. The change of organisation is immediate

Change organisation via your Infomaniak profile page

This guide explains how our Manager administration console (https://manager.infomaniak.com/) works. This interface enables you to manage different Infomaniak products, such as domain names, hosting, etc.

Ordering a product = account creation

If you do not have any Infomaniak products yet, you will be invited during the ordering process to create a user account (with a login) and a client account is automatically created at that time.

For individuals, the client account generally consists of the name and first name, whereas for a company, it is generally its business or company name.

Once the client account has been created by the first user, it is possible to:

1. add other users
2. create other client accounts

1. The other users can have:

• full rights and thus become the administrator of the client account
• limited rights (access to specific products)
• with or without invoicing rights

2. The other client accounts may:

• contain other products unrelated to the other client accounts
• have their own users who will not have access to other client accounts 

The client account concept is particularly useful for people who need to manage several products for different clients. For example, imagine that a webmaster or partner needs to manage the products for three different companies, each with its own client account containing their respective products. By adding the webmaster or partner as administrator of their client account, the latter can easily switch from one client account to another in order to manage the various products of the 3 companies without having to log in and out of the companies' client accounts each time. In fact, they will use a single login.

This guide explains why you may receive an automatic security email concerning your Infomaniak account.

Automatic prevention email

A security email is automatically sent when a new login to your account takes place from a new location .

This can especially happen if you use the private browsing mode of your browser or if you access your account from a new computer.

If a malicious person connects to your Infomaniak account from a computer that you are not using, you will be notified immediately.

Important

If you receive this email immediately after logging in to your Infomaniak account yourself, you can ignore the login warning.

Otherwise, it is recommended to change the password of your Manager account https://faq.infomaniak.com/2359 as well as that of your email addresses attached to your kMail: https://faq.infomaniak.com /711

If you notice actions on your Infomaniak account that you do not think you have carried out, you can activate double authentication on your account to improve its protection:  https://faq.infomaniak.com/1940
