when someone sign in to website and write username and password wrong
they said
username or password wrong
why they can't know what is the wrong specifically username or password?
Basically, you don't want to give a hacker any information to work off of. For example, if they're just putting in tons of usernames with random passwords and the site says that the password is wrong, the hacker knows they found an account and they can start working on the password. The combination of not knowing if either is valid is definitely more secure.

Dear people on Stackoverflow,
is it possible to set a default Outlook profile per machine, so for example that it doesn't matter which user logs in at the machine, they can only access one particular mail profile.
Thank you all for helping!
No, Outlook profiles are stored on the per user (HKCU) basis.

How would I go about adding an account to Postfix and secure it with a password?
I've already setup everything else, and root works.
The simple way to add a user is to simply add a new account on the system. Postfix will handle the rest.
If you don't want to create a system account for the user, you should have a virtual domain set up that is not configured as a mydestination domain. For more on this, be sure to read the Postfix guide on virtual domain hosting.
See http://www.serverwatch.com/tutorials/article.php/3912056/Adding-Users-and-Aliases-for-Postfix.htm

How can I Configure my GitHub account so that I can clone/commit/push etc. without entering credentials again and again. I am using Linux.
You can either:
use the ssh url (and make sure you are using a public/private key not passphrase-protected, or running an ssh-agent in order to cache the passphrase)
use a credential helper in order to cache the GitHub account password when using https url.
See for instance "Is there a way to skip password typing when using https:// github".

Does anyone know how the "Citadel e-mail server" prevents the user can define their e-mail aliases yourself?
I've already read the FAQ, but unfortunately I have not found anything.
In my current version (8.17) only users with Aide rights can change their e-mail alias on citadel/webcit.
I believe that users with lower rights can't change it, at least when I tried, my users are "local users" (one Aide, and sometimes other for testing purposes).

I'm trying to connect to a channel in freenode using xchat but I'm getting this:
Invalid password for my_nickname.
Any idea?
NOTE: I'm asking here because I didn't find a good place to ask.. Please, recommend me a place to ask about freenode if you consider this is not the right place..
do you get that error on all channels?
otherwise there might be a password on the channel
could also be that you didn't identify to the nickserver and freenode doesn't let you join anything (not familair with freenode)
please explain some more or past some RAW code when you try to join a channel with that error
It means that you provided an incorrect password to NickServ. If you saved your password in xchat you may want to check to see if it is still valid. If you have forgotten your password, hop in #freenode and ask for password reset.
