*What is happening?* Starting at 6AM Sunday morning we will be applying security updates to mail.msln.net (lv-o-msln-mail.its.maine.edu), mail.maine.edu (lv-o-mx- 7.its.maine.edu) and f.maine.edu (lv-o-mail-fwd2.its.maine.edu) and then will reboot them. mail.msln.net provides mailboxes, web mail and mail relay for many MSLN sites. During this maintenance these will be briefly unavailable. mail.maine.edu provides mail relay, mail forwarding and is the front door for Userid Manager and some self service account management. During this maintenance these will be briefly unavailable. f.maine.edu handles legacy mail forwarding. During this maintenance, making changes to forwardings will be briefly unavailable and legacy forwarding may be delayed a few minutes. *How long will it take?* We expect the service to take about 5 to 10 minutes per machine. *Why is this work necessary?* For security and support reasons we need to keep our systems running on recent well supported operating systems. What happens if the work is not successful? We will back out to snapshots of these machines taken prior to application of the changes.
