Due to the continual spam (often concerning LED lighting sales) received from certain domains we have started directing email from many sites ending in icp.net and icp.cc to the SuspectedSpam folder automatically, with a label that says [BLACKLISTED]. If you need to receive email from these sites please let us know and you can whitelist the required addresses (see our Email and Spam Filtering webpage for more information).
Software updates at 4:15pm on Wednesday April 24, 2013
The departmental servers coxeter, sphere, and the mail, web, share, ptr, and blog/wiki servers will have software updates applied this Wednesday afternoon, April 24, 2013 which will require rebooting (most servers will be unavailable starting at 4:15pm). Since some updates will be applied while the servers are still up there may be some temporary issues with some software. We hope that any such issues will be minor and by doing most of the upgrading before bringing systems down the shorter downtime will be worth the potential minor problems. Please restart any programs if you observe problems during the upgrades (and please let us know at requests@math.toronto.edu, so we can investigate). We expect the systems to be back up by 5:00pm.
MATLAB sessions on Wednesday May 1, 2013
A complimentary MATLAB training seminar for educators, academic researchers and students at the University of Toronto has been scheduled.
