We have been investigating reports from users of problems with email-based ticket creation. We have a number of users from distinct and a limited number of accounts reporting what seems to be random/intermittent emails not reaching their help desk. The majority of accounts are not impacted. We are actively testing and troubleshooting with impacted users. And with assistance from our email provider, we have narrowed down the underlying cause and are working on a resolution. Current workarounds include re-sending missing emails or using the end user portal. We will provide updates here, as they're available.

As of Feb. 14 we made changes not requiring a release and which appear to have resolved this issue with the intermittent loss of inbound email. We have been reaching out to those previously impacted and monitoring for the past 2 weeks to confirm resolution. Please reach out by emailing [email protected] if you're seeing deliverability problems in either direction (inbound or outbound). And thanks again to all of you who worked with us to troubleshoot on this.
