The migration is expected to be completed by Jen. 1, 2007 at 8:00 AM.

Update on Campus Email Server
Email is currently processing as it should. Last Tuesday, November 7th, several changes were made to the email server following consultation with an outside firm specializing in "sendmail". Since that time, the server and queues appear to be functioning well, with few delays.

Email Update
Beginning about two weeks ago, the campus saw almost a doubling of incoming email. The sharp increase in volume impacted our email server, which had difficulty keeping up with the load, and so began queuing some email for later delivery.

Email Server Experiencing Backlog
Since last Wed., Computing Services reports more than a 50% increase in the average daily incoming and outgoing email messages. Levels of about 3-400,000 messages per day are suddenly nearing a million messages per day. At current levels, when there is a backlog of messages to deliver, the email server will queue messages for later delivery - sometimes as much as three days later.
