+ | :JHU is experiencing email issues with it's @jhu.edu mail services due to a global outage at Cisco. This affects both incoming and outgoing email messages to external recipients. It also impacts systems that send email through JHU's email gateways. Expect major mail delays until this is fixed. (We suspect that those with @jhu.edu addresses can still send and receive to others with @jhu.edu addresses.) | ||
+ | :'''''UPDATE:''''' JHU has implemented a work-around to the email problem, and email delivery has returned to normal. | ||

And although the power to the building should restored around 2:30pm that same day, we will not have all our systems back up and running until approx. 4:30pm, so plan on about 2 hours after the power outage is deemed over until our servers and services are available again. |
