1. Purpose of This Policy

This policy clarifies the scope of services provided by JUCRA in relation to email infrastructure and explains what is not included within our service offering.

There is an important distinction between:

  • Email server infrastructure (which we provide)
  • End-user IT support for email software/devices (which we do not provide)

This distinction is critical to understanding the service boundaries.


2. What JUCRA Provides

JUCRA provides professional GDPR-compliant email infrastructure hosted in Europe, including:

  • DNS management (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
  • Redundant MX servers
  • Mail server infrastructure
  • Mailbox creation and management
  • Secure authentication systems
  • Server-side security controls
  • Webmail access
  • DIY email setup tools and tutorials

In simple terms:
We provide the engine, the fuel system, and the secure garage.


3. What JUCRA Does NOT Provide

Not Included Within Our Service

  • On-site IT support
  • Remote desktop troubleshooting
  • Outlook configuration
  • Apple Mail / Thunderbird setup
  • PST / OST repair
  • Folder mapping troubleshooting
  • Device synchronisation debugging
  • Local network troubleshooting
  • End-user software training

Why?

We are an infrastructure provider, not an outsourced IT helpdesk.

Local devices, networks, and email software operate outside our control and responsibility.


4. Why We Do Not Provide Email Client Support

4.1 Separation of Responsibility

Business email consists of multiple independent layers:

  1. DNS & Mail Infrastructure
  2. Internet Connectivity
  3. Local Networks
  4. Individual Computers
  5. Email Client Software
  6. Mobile Devices

JUCRA controls layer 1 only.

Most “missing email” or “folder issue” problems occur in layers 4–6.

4.2 Client-Side Email Software Is Unpredictable

Particularly with Microsoft Outlook:

  • Outlook stores local PST/OST files
  • Outlook may store mail locally instead of on the server
  • Profiles can corrupt
  • Cached mode may show inconsistent information
  • Rules may move mail without user awareness

These behaviours occur entirely on the local machine.

4.3 Liability & Operational Risk

If we begin troubleshooting local machines:

  • We become responsible for third-party software behaviour
  • We risk liability for local IT problems
  • We enter unmanaged environments
  • We absorb open-ended support costs

5. Simple Scenario Explanation

Imagine JUCRA provides a secure post office box.

  • We guarantee mail arrives at the post office
  • We guarantee it is stored securely
  • We guarantee redundancy and compliance
  • We log delivery

However:

If somebody installs a filing cabinet incorrectly in their office and documents go into the wrong drawer, that is not the responsibility of the post office.

Outlook is the filing cabinet.
We are the post office.


6. If a Client Cannot Configure Their Email Client

We provide:

  • DIY setup tools
  • Step-by-step tutorials
  • Correct server settings
  • Secure webmail access

If a user is not comfortable configuring their own email software, they should engage a qualified local IT company.


7. Webmail Availability

We provide a full-featured webmail interface that:

  • Works on desktop and mobile
  • Syncs directly with the server
  • Reflects the true server state
  • Bypasses local device issues

Webmail is considered the definitive source of proof regarding whether an email exists on the server.


8. Important Clarification

Providing premium GDPR-compliant email infrastructure does not imply that we provide:

  • General IT support
  • Outlook troubleshooting
  • Mobile device support
  • Local machine repair

These are separate professional disciplines.

Just as a hosting company is not automatically your website designer, a mail server provider is not automatically your IT department.


9. Summary

JUCRA Provides

Secure, redundant, GDPR-compliant email infrastructure and webmail services.

JUCRA Does NOT Provide

End-user IT support, Outlook troubleshooting, or local device management.

If your business requires ongoing device management or staff IT support, we strongly recommend retaining a qualified IT services provider.
