We are working with our email service provider (ESP) to resolve the email delivery issue. Email flow outbound from Cloud Help Desk is sending to the ESP successfully, but is being enqueued/held for an unknown reason. The ESP indicated any enqueued messages will deliver once this is resolved.

Our email service provider (ESP) has released the outbound email hold and emails are now delivering. Messages queued during this outage should all be delivered, and new messages should see no delay. If you notice any issues please email [email protected] to let us know. We will continue monitoring through Feb. 7. We will also be working with our ESP to prevent such email delivery holds in the future.
