ITS staff noticed the Fac-staff POP and IMAP servers were down early this morning. We rebooted the servers as soon as we were aware of the problem, which restored connectivity.
Faculty and staff who had problems connecting to email late last night or early this morning should try again now.
Thanks,

On Saturday afternoon we discovered a problem with the WELLS server (which hosts faculty userspaces, off-campus account holders’ userspaces, departmental userspaces and class userspaces) which was preventing users from accessing these folders.
