Google’s Postini Outage Affects Many United States Users, Now Resolved

Wednesday, October 14, 2009 by Michael Holley

From as early as 5:30am yesterday to as late as 5:40am today, many of Google's US Postini subscribers experienced severe delays in email delivery.

Google released the following statement yesterday:

"We're aware of an issue that's causing a delay in mail delivery for some Postini customers in the US, and are working to fix it as quickly as possible. We know how important mail is to our users, so we take issues like this very seriously, and apologize for the inconvenience. We encourage anyone having technical difficulty to visit the Postini support portal at https://www.postini.com/support/support_login.php."

Unfortunately, many users also reported difficulty connecting to Postini's online support portal.

We have since received word that Postini is now back online and fully functional. No word yet on the cause of the outage, but we'll keep you posted as soon as we know.

Best,

Michael Holley
