Remove email configuration
Remotely remove the email configuration to block unauthorized users from accessing your corporate email account on devices.
This restriction helps to block unauthorized users from accessing the corporate email account on
a device, either due to security concerns or when a device is lost or stolen. When the
Remove email configuration restriction is applied, IBM®
MaaS360® removes the email configuration payload and blocks
access to the corporate email account on the device. You can revoke the Quarantine action when the
risk posture of the user or device is improved. When the action is revoked, IBM
MaaS360 re-installs the email configuration payload and
restores access to the corporate email account.
Important: This restriction is supported
on iOS, Android, and Windows devices.
