Major Upgrades Underway: Faculty and Staff Email Now Moving to the Cloud

From now until Jan. 10, Exchange email and calendaring services for faculty and staff members are being migrated to the Microsoft Office 365 cloud. As each person is migrated, they will experience a 30-minute interruption in service.

Once migrated, it will be necessary to restart Outlook or other email applications. Some users will be required to change settings for email apps and on mobile devices. An email has been sent to faculty and staff detailing what to do and how to get assistance.

The Office 365 cloud provides several new features, including a more user-friendly, web-based email service at outlook.office.com, which is replacing the Outlook Web App service at exchange.uark.edu.
