An email sent yesterday to its business contacts seems to have been affected by problems with the servers of some of the intermediaries being mailed. The problem was then compounded when complaints came in about the inflow of
electronic mail that some contacts were receiving.
CFS recommend that financial advisers (and anyone else!) using a server within their office that runs a Microsoft program called ‘Small Business Server’ take the following immediate action.
Go to www.microsoft.com/uk
Go to support
Go to technical database
Search for file 835734
Follow instructions to download the patch.
CFS apologise for any inconvenience caused, which has not only shut down their own email system, but has resulted in their main email address - contifs.com – to be deleted.
Please contact Simon Conn at CFS for any further updates on 01273 772811.
