Cable & Wireless Jamaica will be moving its mail and portal services to Google Apps by October 30, 2013. In a release to customers, the company stated, “note that no other aspect of your service will be changing as a result of this move. These changes will result in an improvement in the breadth and quality of services. To accommodate for these changes, there are a number of items that you need to be aware of”.
New Password | In preparation for the move to Google, a change to your email password may be required. To be clear, your email address will not change. Once the mail services have been transitioned to Google, your email password will need to be at least eight characters. This change is necessary to be compatible with Google’s security requirements. If your password is already at least eight characters, you need make no change. If not, the company recommends that customers change their password immediately to avoid any possible downtime during the migration.
New User Agreement | LIME’s user agreement has been amended to include Google Terms of Service. The updated agreement can be viewed by simply clicking, here. The use of your cwjamaica.com email address and the associated services means that you accept these terms and conditions.
C&W says there are many advantages to Google Apps. “This includes 7.5+ Gigabytes of web mail storage. This means that your email can remain on the mail server indefinitely. In addition, we will now be able to offer you a more reliable mail service and you will be able to access your mail via your mobile phone or other mobile devices.”
