E-mail Upgrade 6/13/07 at 7:00
pm
Dear ISP Clients:
We will be upgrading our e-mail server software this
Wednesday, June 13, at 7:00 pm CDT. Operational downtime for
e-mail, both desktop clients such as Outlook or Outlook Express and
webmail, is expected to be down about 30 minutes around 8pm.
During this small window you will not be able
to receive new incoming messages or access webmail, but there will be no loss of incoming mail during
this time as they will all be delivered once the upgrade is
complete.
The upgrade is only a "build update", which is less serious than a
version upgrade, so our confidence is high - but of course we'll be
making multiple backups beforehand.
Also, with the summer upon us and vacations coming up, be sure to
check out our procedures for setting up an e-mail auto-responder if
you use NexLAN's e-mail servers as your primary server.
Regards,
Kevin E.

Setting Your
E-mail Responder
You probably know that if you are headed out of the office for an extended period of time and unable
to access your email, you can set a "responder" to manage your Inbox and
automatically respond to incoming messages.
By adjusting a few settings, you can notify senders that you won't be
answering your email immediately.
To access the responder:
-
Login to NexLAN webmail at
http://webmail.nexlan.net.
-
Choose "Settings" from the top navigation bar,
then choose "Auto Responder" at the left.
-
On the page that appears, type the message to be sent in the text box at
the top.
Monitor
Your Pending Challenge Responses
Did you know that you
can monitor your pending Challenge Responses and immediately approve
or deny them?
If your domain has opted
in to our
Challenge Response program, simply log into your webmail at
http://webmail.nexlan.net and click
the Settings button in the top toolbar, then choose Challenge
Response.
You'll see a queue of
pending challenge responses for your e-mail address. If you
see an address that is clearly spam and not a legitimate sender, you
can instantly reject their pending challenge response and add them
to your blacklist.
If you see a valid
sender in your queue who hasn't yet clicked the challenge response
link, you can save them the trouble and mark their pending response
as accepted. The associated message will then be delivered to
your Inbox.
If your domain still
isn't enjoying the benefits of using the Challenge Response system,
email us at
nexlan@nexlan.com to opt in to keep
more spam out of your Inbox
