E-Mail Servers Being Upgraded
Published: 08/30/2005
As first announced in the last newsletter, the
Exchange e-mail servers are being upgraded. A few users have been
moved to the new server for testing purposes. The testing has gone
well and we will proceed with migrating everyone else.
The migration process requires little time per user .. just long enough to copy
your mailbox from one server to another. Depending on how many messages
you have, this could take a couple minutes to about an hour. We plan to do
this work after hours until it is complete. No reconfiguration or visits
to your computer are required. All work is done behind the scenes.
We plan to be complete within 2 months. Most new functionality
is administrative in nature except for one notable improvement -- the new
version of Outlook Web Access (OWA). When you visit the OWA web site after
your migration, you will see:

The new OWA more closely emulates the Outlook
program, which should make transitioning between the two more seamless than
today. Please contact
Dudley Roach if you have any questions about this project. |
