# Receiving Email Notifications

In **“General Settings”**, you have the option of receiving email notifications when an IP reaches a certain amount of lockouts. By default, this is set at 3. The email will be sent to your admin email by default, but this can be changed to any email you prefer. You may also turn off this notification.\
\
It’s possible to receive several emails in a short period of time when you’re under brute force attack. This is normal behavior and can help you gauge the seriousness of the attack.\
\
Premium users will receive a monthly digest email with stats from failed login attempts from the previous month. Free users who subscribe to our email list will also receive occasional updates on new features and security updates.
