    Thank you for your post.

    I will assist you to get this resolved.

    Does the notification include any other information?
    Specific files or exploits at all?
    If you can share that it would be great.

    If you cannot share it here, please create a ticket in our help desk: http://tribulant.com/support/

    I look forward to your response.

    Thank you for the information.

    Can you please change the permissions on that emailarchive.txt file to 0644.

    We have received a complaint from another user earlier this week and we are working on improving/fixing this issue then we’ll release an update for this.

    Sorry to hear that you removed the plugin.
    Please consider using it again.

    You can change the permissions on that file.
    It is set to 0777 to make sure it is writable but we’re working on improving this asap.
