The email SSL issue has been resolved. Email clients should work normally, workarounds suggested yesterday are no long necessary.

If you are having trouble sending email with programs such as Thunderbird or the OS X email client, please try using the College’s webmail interfaces at either https://calendar.potsdam.edu or https://bearmail.potsdam.edu. These are unaffected by the present issues with outgoing email.

Fixing the outgoing email issue is taking longer than expected. An announcement will be posted when it is complete. Thank you for your patience.

The SSL certificate for the outbound email server has expired. A new cert is being acquired and installed. Full outbound email service should be restored within the hour. If you need to send email before then, please use an alternate email account but set the “Reply-To” field to [yourid]@potsdam.edu. Inbound email is unaffected.
