Star Army has been having some issues with email which I'm working on resolving.
Current issues:
Current issues:
- Gmail seems to be rejecting emails from us due to an DNS record thing. Other email providers may also be affected.
- Email in general isn't being sent reliably, causing people to miss notifications by email - this is due to a limit per hour from our host, that is sometimes hit in peak hours
- Due to the above, email verification has been disabled for account creation temporarily
- Due to the above, there's a non-negligible portion of users using that don't work anymore.
- Star Army is moving email sending services to Amazon - this is a paid but low-cost solution that will get everyone their emails from SARP reliably - but we need to clean up our email lists first
- We will start automatically checking bounces and disabling accounts of users whose emails bounce
- Might have to force everyone to re-verify their emails once as a precaution
- We will be doing some updates of DNS settings to make our outgoing emails more trustable by mail servers so stuff is less likely to be rejected or spam-foldered so you can get immediately notified when your catgirl supersoliders get shot at by Kuvexian corporate mercs.
