AD Password Expiry improvements (Enterprise)
A reminder email that doesn't look like phishing
The password-reminder email has been redesigned. The old one had the classic shape of a credential-phishing message: a countdown in the subject line, a colored banner, and a warning about losing access. It now has a fixed subject ("Reminder to change your password"), gives your security policy as the reason, and shows details only your IT team would know, namely the account name and when the password was last changed. It says plainly that it contains no links and never asks for a password, and its header uses your brand color. Unedited reminder templates upgrade automatically; customized templates are left alone.
This also fixes a subject line that could read "expires in soon day(s)", and already-expired accounts being told their password "expires in -5 day(s)".
Password change interval
For domains where Active Directory never expires passwords, SwanDesk can now date each account from its last password change, for example every 90 days. Set it on the AD Password Expiry page. These dates are marked "policy" and show as Due soon or Overdue; a real Active Directory expiry always takes precedence. Any account with an email address can also be reminded individually, including accounts whose passwords never expire.
See who acted on a reminder
A Changed marker appears when someone changed their password after your last reminder, and a new Reminded, not changed yet filter lists who still needs to act.
Also fixed
Saving the reminder settings now updates the account list immediately, and Remind all expiring no longer re-sends to people it reminded moments earlier.
