We're moving and updating backend infrastructure to more resilient towards DDoS and improve the mailing system reputation so that email providers like Tutanota more reliably deliver mail to inboxes.

The nature of the upgrade is likely to impact SSL certs and the mailing system itself briefly. If you have any questions please reach out to the Monero Space Matrix room: https://matrix.to/#/#monero-space:monero.social

I'll post updates to this thread as things are completed.

Service is complete.

Partially. SMTP aspect of changes needs to be done pending vendor validation process, but the major networking change at least is out of the way

Final changes around SMTP pathways are finished, enhancement infrastructure changes as a whole are now complete and healthchecked so users should more reliably get emails to their inbox regardless of provider. This set of changes has bumped up the trustiness to 7.9/10 on the SpamAssasin scoring. That last bit is due to the domain for reasons unknown being listed on this blocklist which I'll look into: http://www.sorbs.net/lookup.shtml
