Answers for private customers

The Knowledge Base for private customers is already largely up to date. A few individual articles are currently being revised and adapted. We thank you for your understanding and look forward to providing you with up-to-date information on using mailbox.

Please note: The knowledge base has changed slightly. Categories have been adapted and URLs stored in the old knowledge base may no longer be valid.
