CIT will need to move the affected users' accounts to fully resolve the underlying problems. When their accounts are moved, users will be unable to access their accounts for between a few minutes and 60 minutes, depending on how much mail is in their account.\n\nOne of the remaining problems is that search in Outlook Web Access is not working for these accounts. This will be resolved when the accounts are moved this evening.\n\n\nPrevious Description: Exchange email and calendar is currently unavailable for a few hundred users.

There are still some unresolved problems with the mailbox database 16 on mbxa. To avoid any potential data loss CIT is moving mailboxes out of this database. This process will result in a brief interruption of access and mail delivery to individual mailboxes. The total amount of time an individual mailbox will be unavailable will be between 5 minutes and 45 minutes. We apologize for this additional interruption of service while we correct this problem. | There are still some unresolved problems with the mailbox database 16 on mbxa.
