Campus e-mail server to be upgraded

On Nov. 25-26, Information Technology Services staff will be replacing our faculty/staff e-mail server, Zimmer. The new server will provide increased capacity and performance to meet the increasing demand for e-mail services. The upgrade will begin at 8 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 25, and conclude during the evening of Saturday, Nov. 26.

As the e-mail server will be unavailable during this upgrade, you will be unable to receive new mail, send messages, access the Web-based email system or access e-mail messages that you have stored on Zimmer.  All messages sent to your account while the upgrade is in progress will be queued by campus relays and delivered when service becomes available.

After the upgrade is complete, your existing e-mail client software, spam filter and other associated services should continue to function as they have in the past.

If you have any questions about this upgrade, contact Jim Michael at 8-7001.
