Over the last 10 minutes we have been experiencing issues with the MF2 gateway leading to periodic connectivity issues. We are performing a database maintenance on the gateway in an attempt to clear up the instability. During this maintenance window MF2 will not accept mail. All mail sent to users on MF2 will queue at the sending server and will be delivered once the maintenance has completed and the sending server re-attempts to send the message.

Unfortunately there is no way to predict an ETA on database maintenance as we don’t know how long it will take to clean any problems it might find. We will update this blog post when MF2 service has been restored.

Our apologies for the inconvenience!

Update: At 10:17am central US time service for MF2 was restored. Mail queued at the sending server will be retried according to that sender’s retry delivery settings.
