"Access to the Fastmail web interface is currently offline. We are currently looking into it."

https://www.fastmailstatus.com

Edit: Seems to be fixed now.




iOS app down too. Must use web interface. Wonder if Fastmail engineers use iOS.


It’s a little alarming to discover that when Fastmail is down I have access to literally none of my email. No local cache.


They do have IMAP...


This is one reason I switched to Apple's mail services. Apple's client is 100% offline and it all just sort of works without having to fuck around with IMAP settings.


How come? No jokes, even free tool like thunderbird has local cache, not even mentioning The Bat and Outlook.

Cannot imagine.


Possibly the JMAP endpoints are down but IMAP still works, something along those lines?


These status pages are just useless. I've never encountered one that actually reflected the status of their observed service.


I'm not sure if there's a joke I'm missing, but Fastmail's status page seems to be accurate?


It wasn't at the time. Mobile Apps didn't work but it showed them as green.


Fastmail's status page has historically been pretty good.


Historically when everything was working maybe. That day not because services that were green clearly weren't working.
