Saturday, May 23, we will be upgrading the Groupwise e-mail server to version 8. This upgrade will start at 4:00 AM, Saturday morning, and last throughout the day. While this upgrade is in process, your Holy Cross e-mail will be inaccessible. We expect the upgrade to be finished by 4:00 PM.
This upgrade will not result in any change for those folks who use the current Groupwise mail client. E-mail and calendaring will continue to function as they have. This will not require you to update your software, or to make changes. Additionally, folks who download their e-mail to mobile devices using mail clients on those products will not see any changes.
For those who use the web to access Groupwise, you will notice that the interface has been significantly improved. The web version now has features that make it nearly as strong as locally installed mail client. A full list of the changes to Groupwise Webaccess can be found here:
