So some spam signups just happened (all username12345678@gmail.com format e-mail) This caused bounced mail to increase, causing Mailgun to block our domain to prevent it getting blacklisted.

So:

  • Mail temporarily doesn’t work
  • I closed signups for now
  • I will ban the spam accounts
  • I will check how to prevent (maybe approval required again?)

Stay tuned.

Edit: so apparently there is a captcha option which I now enabled. Let’s see if this prevents spam. Registrations open again.

Edit2 : Hmm Mailgun isn’t that fast in unblocking the domain. Closing signups again because validation mails aren’t sent

Edit 3: I convinced Mailgun to lift the block. Signups open again.

    OK that makes sense, I was trying to sign up and couldn’t figure out why everything was timing out. Sorry if my attempts looked like spam.

    edit: it still doesn’t work for me btw
