Introduction

What is IAS Email Continuity?

IAS Email Continuity is provided to allow Faculty, Members, Visitors and Staff to access their new email during a prolonged outage of our primary email system. The service is available to allow anybody with email privileges at the IAS to access new incoming email messages and compose new outgoing messages.

Please be aware that this system is intended to provide a means for accessing your email when the main IAS email servers are offline. Given this, when using IAS Email Continuity, you will not have access to stored email messages, calendars, contacts or other customizations that may be part of your setup under normal conditions.
