The 'Sign in with Unipass ID' option will need to be used if you have a Unipass Mailock account or a Mailock account with a Unipass ID linked.

 

If you have a Unipass ID and have yet to link it to your Mailock account or unsure if it is linked, please click here for further information.

If you have more than one Unipass certificate, click on one certificate at a time and select the 'Certificate information' option and finally select the certificate that matches the email address your secure email has come through to.

 

Select 'OK' once done.

 

If you're using Unipass but don't have an Identity certificate and use solely Unipass Username and Passphrase, you'll see the screen below. Type in your Unipass username/email and passphrase and select to 'Log in'.

In the event you receive the above screen and know you use an Identity certificate instead, or are prompted with the below screen, it's likely your Unipass Identity certificate is not linked to your account, to check this please click here for more information.
