Instability sending & receiving emailResolved Jul 7, 2026 · -28 minResolved

A configuration issue caused instability for sending and receiving email. The issue was resolved a few minutes ago and the system was affected for almost an hour, from 09:30 AM UTC to 10:30 AM UTC. That's 05:30 AM to 06:30 AM New York time. Any mail that arrived during the instability should get retried or delivered soon if it hasn't already. If you were not able to send an email, then you can try again now and it should work. We're sorry for the inconvenience!

StartMail Status FAQ

Is StartMail down right now?

PulsAPI checks StartMail every 60 seconds. The verdict at the top of this page comes from the latest poll of the official StartMail status feed and refreshes automatically, so you are not looking at a stale cached answer.

What should I do if StartMail is not working?

Check the component list on this page first to see if your failure matches a known outage. If it does, you can report the issue for other engineers, follow the incident timeline for vendor updates, and run any fallback your app supports until StartMail recovers.

How do I check StartMail uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks StartMail uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is 100.00%. A free PulsAPI account unlocks the full 90-day SLA history and incident timeline for StartMail.

How fast does PulsAPI detect StartMail outages?

PulsAPI polls the official StartMail status page every 60 seconds and usually delivers alerts to Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email in under 4 seconds after detection. That is often faster than someone on your team notices on their own.

Does PulsAPI track individual StartMail components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 4 individual StartMail components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.

Can I get alerts when StartMail goes down?

Yes. Create a PulsAPI account and subscribe to StartMail. Email alerts are included on the free Starter plan. Paid plans add Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, and webhooks whenever StartMail status changes.

How do I report an issue with StartMail to the community?

Click "Report an issue" at the top of this page, pick the issue type and severity, and optionally add your region and a short note. Reports are anonymous and help other engineers spot StartMail problems early. Official status pages often lag real incidents by 10 to 20 minutes.

Is there a free way to monitor StartMail?

Yes. PulsAPI's Starter plan includes up to 10 monitored services with email alerts, and the 30-day free trial requires no credit card. You can monitor StartMail alongside up to 9 other services at pulsapi.com/signup.
