Expected Customer Impact:
Some customers may experience lost SRP connections. If this happens,
customers may notice delays in receiving messages. It is also possible that
messages sent from the BlackBerry may be returned. Returned messages should
be resent once the SRP connection has been restored. We are aggressively
working to restore service to normal operating levels.
Thank you,
