Email System Notes.

ConnecTEN Email Customer: There will be routine maintenance on the tennk12.net email servers this Sunday.  There should be no impact to your email service during these activities.  We will be testing email functionality prior to the start of the school day on Monday, January 14, 2008 to ensure this. 

At the same time this maintenance is occurring and in keeping with current security best practices, additional attachment types are being added to the inbound email block list.  These attachment types are listed  below.
