  One possible reference to which you might try directing your users:

  "How do I set strong passwords for all of the accounts on my computer?"

  Although this IST Knowledge Base document is written in the context of
host account passwords, these password tips - or a variant of them -
should likely also be helpful as a way to come up with memorable and
rules-compliant CalMail passwords, CalNet passphrases, and the like.
