Outage Details

While trying to improve deliverability of these emails, we wanted to communicate two things to folks which may help. 1. If you are stuck with a locked account from retrying codes or getting MFA emails in the wrong order, doing a password reset from our login page and changing your password will also unlock the account. This will save you waiting on support to unlock your account. 2. If you use Mimecast, its "greylisting" feature may be delaying these new MFA emails. More on that here https://community.spiceworks.com/t/cloud-help-desk-release-notes-mar-19-2025-mfa-for-cloud-help-desk-employee-accounts-is-here/1186674/14?u=craig-spiceworks

We're seeing lower ticket volumes today and it appears email filters are getting "used" to the new emails. If you are still having issues, let us know at support@spiceworks.com
