Note: Please follow updates in our Extended Email Service Outage post here
As a continuation of our multi-phased upgrade initiative, we will be executing a planned upgrade to our current email infrastructure. The upgrade will enable us to provide new and exciting email products and features to you in the upcoming months.
This event will impact both Basic and Hosted Exchange email platforms. During the upgrade email service functionality will be affected as follows:
- Access to individual mailboxes will be disabled. As a result email users may experience connectivity errors in Outlook, Webmail and Mobile email clients.
- Inbound email will be queued and delivered after upgrade is complete.
- Mailbox content will continue to be safely stored on our servers during the upgrade.
