Incident Report

Starting around 1:00 PM UTC on January 24, 2026, our engineers began investigating an issue with email delivery to Gmail recipients. Users may experience delivery delays, with emails taking up to 5x longer than usual to reach Gmail addresses. This is due to an issue on the Gmail/Google side, as other email providers remain unaffected. This does not impact mail send; Emails are successfully delivered to Gmail's mail servers; however, Gmail is experiencing delays in delivering those messages to recipient inboxes. You can monitor the status of Google services via the official Google Status Page: https://www.google.com/appsstatus/dashboard/ We will provide another update as soon as more information becomes available.
