| A different email delivery method is about to be put in place which should ensure the Crime Alert system does not send duplicate messages or fail to deliver a message to any individuals' Cornell email account. Until this method is implemented, the current system is being monitored to verify it will perform properly when needed.\n\nFor the long term, a team is working on setting up the Crime Alert email process to use the same system as CornellALERT, at which point, the delivery method being implemented now will function as a backup so that messages can still be sent in the event of issues with the primary system. | A different email delivery method is about to be put in place which should ensure the Crime Alert system does not send duplicate messages or fail to deliver a message to any individuals' Cornell email account.

More details about the long-term solution will be provided as soon as they are closer to finalization. | Representatives of Cornell University Police, Environmental Health and Safety, and Cornell Information Technologies are working together to address the email delivery issues for this past weekend's Crime Alerts.
