gc.com mail issue

Post by Handyman-N-Fam »

Copied and pasted from the gc.com forums:

[quote]
Our primary mail server has suffered a hardware failure, and outgoing e-mail is currently degraded and taking much longer than normal to process outgoing e-mails. This affects notifications, Pocket Queries, password resets, as well as all other e-mail related services on the site.

We have identified the root issue, and deployed a temporary fix. The outbound mail servers are now catching up, and we hope all delayed outbound mail will be sent and everything will be back to normal in the next few hours.

Thank you all for your patience while repair this issue.

I finally got a PQ at 6:14p that normally shows up by 7:00a.

I also got a notification almost 24 hours late. Hope they catch up soon.

I submitted a cache exactly 5 hours ago. The message just arrived saying "Hey, you submitted a cache"
