**Progress has been made on that front: IT gave access to the `grump` server to Severin, to install the MSc projects website.** Server is in the DMZ. Unfortunately, no SSH access, so impossible to remotely administrate (at least, not until the VPN issue on Linux are solved).

> Hi Severin, thanks for your email. Unfortunately the issue you're experiencing is due to a difference in configuration with how UWE's Microsoft Teams is set up against how the Uni of Bristol's Teams appears to be set up. Theirs apparently allows communication with external parties whereas ours does not. There are currently no set plans for UWE to change this.

If you do not have Skype for Business then the only option for communication with this student will be via email.
