There's a workflow for thatOn August 3rd one of our internal servers ran out of space, causing a cascade of issues with our mail server.
A large number of already delivered emails became re-queued for our inboxes. Some of these could not delivered and so the mail server kept trying over the following 7 days. On August 10 it started bouncing messages.
We shut down the server as soon as we became aware of this, within 2 hours, and since have purged our mail queue.
We're very sorry the for inconvenience: please ignore any bounced emails. Rest assured we've taken measures to eliminate the problem.
