Systems Staff Meeting Notes
October 4, 1999
Present: Rich Bennett, Bill Covey, Debra Harris, Winston Harris, Bobbie Meng, Everett Phillips, Suzy Shaw, Hilton Soto, Ying Tang
Announcements
- Culligan H2O - internal confusion abounds within the company. They came to deliver water last Friday, but did not do so because we still had 3 bottles from the last delivery. The 'Culligan man' said he would send someone else to pick up the empties located in the Document Room.
- Chain mail letters continue. Do not reply via email that you want off the list - it will only propagate. Bill is forwarding these to a service that handles such problems. We don't have a real bounce, just a kill file.
- Had a problem over the weekend with the IMAP POP3 server housing the GatorLink Grove accounts. Mail clients were locked out on Sunday. There has been no official notice of its repair.
- Everett placed 2nd in his age group in a Biathlon this past weekend.
