On Tues July 16th, an additional mailrelay machine will be put in service. This is the first stage of a plan to improve the e-mail delivery system, making it faster and more reliable, by adding newer machines and replacing the current one. If you are using a POP- or IMAP-based e-mail package (eg. Z-Mail for Windows, Pine for Windows, Siren, Maildrop for Macintosh, etc.), it's important that it be configured to correctly specify "mailrelay.yorku.ca" as the SMTP server (sometimes called the mail gateway). Specifying "mailrelay.yorku.ca" as your SMTP server/mail gateway will allow us to add/change server hardware without inconveniencing you. Anything other than "mailrelay.yorku.ca" will prevent you from sending outgoing e-mail after the older server is eventually taken out of service. Please check with the CCS Help Desk or your local support people if you are uncertain about the type of mail package you use or if you do not know how to verify the SMTP server/mail gateway setting.
