Additional Information

Below are the alternative paths to find the generated Support Information:

• MacOS: /usr/local/kerio/mailserver/store/tmp/download/username_domain/<hash_number>
• Linux: /opt/kerio/mailserver/store/tmp/download/username_domain/<hash_number>

Hash number is a 10-digit random number, similar to the following one: 4cd94fb597.
