• Sun is working on official patches, in the meantime Sun has developed workarounds for Solaris, Java, etc. Sun customers in Venezuela seeking assistance to deal with this event should contact Sun Venezuela Support Services at +58-212-9053888. For customers outside of Venezuela please contact your local Sun support organization. Q. If I have a Sun One mail server in Memphis that Venezuela users access via their PCs (either through the Web or through an IMAP client), does the workaround need to be applied to the server in Memphis? • No, the workaround does not need to be applied to the server in Memphis. The Venezuelan clients are responsible for keeping track of their local system time, with the assumption that the Web/IMAP servers running on system in Memphis do not use Venezuela timezone. You only need the workaround(s) if your environment is running on Venezuela time.
