FROM THE COMPUTER ROOM:
Gmail – Are you switching to Google Mail at your library? If so, we have found that there are challenges. Our technicians report, “we have discovered that reports going to multiple libraries on Google Mail have an issue: when Google gets the mailing it sees that LibraryA is on Google server1 and that LibraryB is on Google server2 – it will process LibraryA, but it considers Google server2 to be cross domain & will not process LibraryB’s mail. This is a rule imposed in May that is causing much uproar in the community, but is not likely to be changed. We are investigating possible solutions, but do not foresee any easy/quick fix. Please keep this in mind when making future decisions to move to Google Mail.”
We suspect there could be a similar problem with Office 365 mail – so please contact us or discuss this finding with your email provider.
Staff can access reports through the Web reports or through Workflows – so these would be alternate ways to get such reports.
Absences – Frank is on vacation next week. Jim is on vacation the week following. Linda will be away at the end of June for ALA.
