    Email delivery failure affecting sign-up verification and notification emails

    Emails sent by LaunchDarkly — including sign-up verification, password reset, teammate invitation, and workflow notification emails — are currently failing to deliver due to an authentication issue with an upstream email delivery provider. We have identified the cause and are working to restore delivery. Feature flag delivery, SDKs, and the LaunchDarkly application itself are not affected. If you are trying to complete sign-up or reset a password, those emails will not arrive until this is resolved. Once delivery is restored, we will re-send affected verification and password reset emails.

What to do next

  • Verify your own services recovered cleanly. Some upstream outages leave queues or caches in a degraded state, run smoke tests before declaring green internally.
  • Save the post-mortem. Vendors usually publish a detailed RCA 1-3 days later. We'll add it to this page when it appears.
  • Watch the provider going forward. Follow LaunchDarkly's status feed →
