Student Email
Mike McNeil provided an update on the status of the migration of students from Webmail to Tmail.  Additional servers and disks are currently being added to the Tmail system. Once the additional hardware has been installed and tested, student migrations will resume.  Estimates are that migrations will resume in early May.  Students will have an opportunity to pre register for a specific date to migrate.  The migration should be completed by December 2007.
