Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

HubSpot customers experienced intermittent DMARC failures when sending emails to Microsoft-hosted inboxes, with the most significant impact affecting senders who had DMARC policies set to reject or quarantine messages. The issue was caused by improper handling of certain email headers. HubSpot implemented a fix and resolved the incident after 27.7 hours, though some delayed deliveries continued for up to 48 hours as email queues cleared.

In April, some customers may have experienced intermittent DMARC failures on messages to Microsoft-hosted inboxes. Impact was most visible for senders with a DMARC policy of p=reject or p=quarantine. The root cause was related to how certain email headers were being handled. We have implemented a fix and will continue to monitor closely. While there may still be some residual impact to messages as outstanding retries and queue delays clear over the next ~72 hours, we expect impact to remain limited.
