NACS MailBox Services provides e-mail to the vast majority of the campus community, and thus supported by a large infrastructure providing features beyond what AdCom alone can provide today. Primary to this is support for IMAP, which allows for enhanced "synchronized" mail between desktop clients, Webmail, and portable devices.
Pilot
With e-mail being a key part of most people's workday, it is essential that this transition take place as smoothly as possible. This means testing. We have completed functionality testing internally, but need a larger group of users to help test the following:
*Migration procedures- Conversion of messages/attachments/address book (there is no automated filter migration)
*Configuration defaults
*IMAP concepts- Local vs IMAP folders, quotas, webmail, external device/client support
