Changes to Email There are a few important changes you need to be aware of…
Mailbox Quotas Mailbox quota is increasing to 50 GB Previously the quota was around 2 GB
Message Size Limits Maximum message size (text + attachments) is now 25 MB rather than 35 MB To ensure smooth migration, emails larger than 25 MB need to be deleted or stored locally or on a network drive If not addressed messages won’t migrate and will not be recoverable
Mailbox Rules Mailbox rules should migrate successfully - however we suggest you back them up! Users will need to recreate them manually or export/import these rules We have provided instructions on how to do this - see the Office 365 link on the EM webpage MM: follow up with Ricardo on procedure
File Sending Limits Exists to discourage users from sending unsolicited bulk emails. max of 10,000 recipients per day max of 500 recipients per email NOTE: for issues, please contact IT Services Client Support at (310) 825-8000 MM: follow up with Ricardo on procedure
Anti Virus & Anti Spam We will continue to use current AV/AS solutions (i.e. Barracuda) After all of IT Services is migrated, we expect to switch to solutions integrated within Office 365 Make note: users will lose whitelists when this change happens!
