    Not all users affected, but am hearing more and more are. I cannot create a ticket but another admin can. Last I saw Health Dashboard was green across the board.

    I talked to BPOS support and he couldn't even generate a support ticket because that system was down also.

    The Health Dashboard Health Dashboard of course! Too bad it's also hosted on the same server as the first Health Dashboard. Which is clearly the same server as BPOS overall.

    We're in a similar situation. We just migrated over from an aging in-house exchange server to BPOS. Our server may have been old, but it was reliable. This outage coupled with the huge one in May may just mean we will be leaving BPOS. This may have turned out to be a costly mistake.

    I don't think so. There was a note a while ago about dropping support for the 1418 release, but anything newer should be OK.
