Email Service

As a faculty or staff member of the College of Education you will be given an account on our Microsoft Exchange Server infrastructure. Our storage is limited. At this time we are not implementing hard limits on storage. However, once your mailbox reaches 250MB you will receive a daily warning that your mailbox is too large. We are planning to migrate to a campus-wide Exchange 2007 environment which is currently under development. Migration is expected to take place during the Summer/Fall of 2010.

The Office of Information and Instructional Technology (OIIT) has installed a Barracuda Spam Firewall and filters both spam and viruses. You can find out more about this device at http://www.barracudanetworks.com. As set, the firewall is blocking mail sent from known sources of spam and fake or “spoofed” e-mail messages. We are not scanning individual COE e-mail accounts at this time. You can have your personal COE e-mail scanned explicitly by contacting OIIT atoiit@coe.ufl.edu. Once your e-mail address has been configured on the firewall, you will receive an e-mail directing you to your quarantined messages. The quarantine will allow you to delete, forward and manage suspected Spam.
