      The E-mail system will be unavailable tomorrow evening January 16th, starting at 6:00PM. We anticipate the system to be down for approximately one hour.

      During this time users will be unable to connect to the email system in any manner including Outlook and Outlook Web Access.

      Any external e-mail sent to you during the outage will be delivered once the system is brought back online.

      Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.

      NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

          It’s a Friday evening! I guess the more optimal time would be “the night between Saturday and Sunday” but who wants to work then? Not even the tech guys would be my guess.

          Good luck with whatever you need the outlook (horror) email for!!!

          HAHA. If it makes you feel any better I can share your pain (this is the microsoft program you’ve been looking for) since we have Outlook as default too. (I’m told you can not have another program… unless you hide from the IT guys.)

          And our intrasite doesn’t really work as well with Safari or firefox (this is the microsoft program you’ve been looking for) . that makes the options limited…. (and I haven’t tried Opera but last time it didn’t like that program with the settings….)

          God that pisses me off. As if coding websites to work is difficult.

          I just read “outage” as “outrage” 3 times. I still don’t believe my eyes though. This was an outrage!

          Lovingly written and previewed on Safari via a Mac.
