Tuesday, October 13, 2009 3:30 a.m.
A problem with Postini, the service provider for the University's Email Spam and Virus Filtering Service, may result in significant delays in delivering some email messages to University students, faculty, and staff. Postini is aware of the problem and is working to resolve it as quickly as possible. All email messages will be delivered, although significantly more time than normal may be required until the problem is resolved. Postini has provided the following information:
Issue: Some customers are experiencing intermittent issues with slow or delayed inbound and outbound mail delivery. You may also experience issues with Web Access.
Note: During this time, messages may be deferred or queued, but no messages are lost or deleted. Mail processing may also be directed to the secondary data center at times.
Status: Engineering continue to investigate this issue, and an update will be posted as soon as the issue is resolved. We apologize for the inconvenience.
