Frequently asked questions about HEY Email
Are messages lost if HEY Email is down?
Almost never. Sending servers retry for hours or days, so mail sent to you queues up and arrives late rather than vanishing.
My message shows as sent but never arrived.
Give it a few hours before resending. During an outage delivery is delayed rather than abandoned, and sending twice causes its own confusion.
How do I know if HEY Email is down for everyone?
Look at the outage graph above. A sudden spike in reports means the problem is on the HEY Email side and there is nothing to fix at your end. A flat graph points at something local - your connection, your device, or your account.
HEY Email is down. What can I actually do?
When the reports are widespread, waiting is the honest answer - the mail service is being restored by people who already know about it. Before you settle in, it is worth checking your internet connection and reloading HEY Email once, because that rules out the handful of causes that look identical from your side.
Why is HEY Email working for other people but not for me?
Outages are often partial. They can hit one region, one platform, or one group of accounts while everything else carries on. Your own connection, an old app version or a cached login can also produce a problem only you can see.
