Resolved after 6 hours 15 minutes, affecting Overall Service Status (Heart Internet - Shared Mail), on November 5, 2026.
The incident was resolved at approximately 00:30 GMT on 6 November 2026. Inbound email scanning capacity was restored, and email delivery returned to normal. Depending on the sending server's retry behaviour, affected messages were either queued and delivered automatically once service was restored, or returned to the sender with a non-delivery notification. In the latter case, the original sender will need to resend the message. We apologise for the disruption.
