Fastmail – Availability Dropping Again

3 points by LilBytes ↗ HN
FastMail seems to be losing availability again. POP3 and IMAP aren't responding for me, nor is the web portal.

Status page hasn't been updated as of yet. This started ~10 minutes ago.

"We are currently experiencing a DDoS attack, however we have a number of mitigations in place to minimise the attack’s effects. Some customers might see a degradation of services."

Would be pretty amazing if these guys just happened to offer a parallel service, where you could test new features, but which isn't affected by the outage.
