IT Professionals,
The eLearning Services team (eLS) want to inform you of an upcoming change for Box at IU [1] as well as a scheduled WileyPLUS maintenance [2].
On Saturday February 22, between 2:00 am and 7:00am EST, students will not be able to create a WileyPLUS account while the vendor performs system maintenance.
Beginning on Monday, February 24, Box will begin switching to Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) to deliver email notifications on behalf of Box. There is no expected downtime associated with this update, which will be completed by March 9.
Aligning with current practices, the new Box email notifications will not be flagged as external [3].
You can read more information about this change here [4].
