+=== 1. What can I do if my user is not able to receive the 2Auth OTP email? ===
+If your user did not receive the 2Auth OTP email in their Inbox, Spam or other folder after more than 10 minutes, you can either:
+  * Change the user's 2Auth Email to an email address that can receive the OTP email; or
+  * Temporarily disable 2Auth for the user while ensuring the user's 2Auth Email does not block emails coming from lookafter.com traffic.
-. Click Update.
+=== 2. Can I enforce 2Auth on multiple users? ===
+As 2Auth is applied per-user basis, there is no option to enable the feature for multiple users collectively. 2Auth has to be enabled user-by-user (either by user's initiative, or by the voadmin/avomaster within each user's account setting).
