Thats a point... Im expecting an email but my provider is getting a attack. What happens to any emails sent to them at this point?

@DatTux Protonmail? ๐Ÿ˜‰
Well with email, the sending mail server will try again and as far as I remember, Postfix (which is probably one of the most common software for that) will keep trying for 48h or so. It starts with every few minutes and should back off until it tries every hour I believe. But this can obviously be different with different mail server software on the sending side.

@lx aha, cheers! Always wondered how that worked. I got the email in the end luckily.

Yeah Protonmail ๐Ÿคฃ. lucky it's back online now!
