Caltech E-Mail System Maintenance Starting Tuesday 4/29
Starting April 29th, IMSS will start migrating the storage of emails to a new server. This will only impact email in our main Unix email system. To avoid a service outage, we will be moving accounts from the old storage server into the new server in small groups while the mail system is running. This process will take several weeks since we have to move about 11,000 accounts.
This migration will not impact your ability to receive or check your e-mail but you might see a small email delay (15 to 45 minutes) while we are moving your email storage to the new server. |

Beware Fake E-mails Asking for Your Caltech Username & Password
Many campus users are receiving e-mails claiming to come from Caltech that ask them to provide their usernames and passwords. Please be aware that this is a form of security attack known as “phishing” designed to fool users into giving their usernames and passwords to unknown persons. Please do not reply to these e-mails.
IMSS recommends against providing usernames and passwords by e-mail, and IMSS will never ask users for their passwords by e-mail or phone. If you receive any confusing or worrisome e-mails about any of your Caltech accounts, we strongly recommend you take the cautious approach by contacting the IMSS Help Desk at x3500 or help@caltech.edu or your local system administrator. |
