CIT has traced the origin to maintenance that was done on Sunday, January 15. \n\nThe issue is affecting about 140 individuals who have their Exchange email forwarded to non-Exchange addresses (such as Gmail, the student email system Cmail, etc.). Due to a directory error, email has NOT been forwarded from Exchange to the non-Exchange addresses since approximately 12 noon on January 15.\n\nSome of this email has been returned to the senders with an error message. Other email will be delivered as soon as the problem is fixed. \n\nSome of the affected individuals may have their email set to be forwarded to non-Exchange addresses and to be delivered to their Exchange account.
