Student E-Mail System Upgraded and Expanded
First off, we apologize for the lengthy delay in getting the e-mail
system back up for students. The process took a lot longer than our
original projectors but was absolutely necessary to complete to
avoid expected major hardware failure at an unpredictable period of
time. A failure after this weekend would clearly impact students
dealing with the end-of-term issues. A message has been sent to all
faculty so they know that there was an issue with this method of
communication. The upgrade has placed the student e-mail system on
a new server with a significant amount of disk space. ITS has
upgraded all accounts to a 25Meg quota. This was long overdue. Over
14000 accounts were transitioned and converted onto the new server.
Approximately 36 had technical issues that ITS is in the process of
resolving. If you encounter problems accessing your account, you
may be one of the 36. We are continuing to work through the night
to address these remaining accounts. You should know that every
message will appear as if it has yet to be read. This is true even
for messages that had already been read. You may also discover that
you may need to make adjustments to your settings for the display
of the messages. By default, the messages may not display in the
same order you had previously view them in. If you have any
questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the Helpdesk at
313.993.1500 or helpdesk@udmercy.edu. If you have complaints
regarding the outage, please send those to the helpdesk as well and
ITS will follow up with you.
