The email problem is very tentatively resolved:
The “beeminder.com ” domain is registered with Namecheap, with DNS pointing to Linode (ns*.linode.com as nameservers) where we have our zonefiles.
We’ve been having rare but ongoing DNS failures, which we now think is Linode’s fault. Last night, it because hair-on-fire acute for a while, with emails to @beeminder.com addresses mostly bouncing:
It seems that that was due to the following Linode outage:
We’re pretty angry about how consistently flaky Linode has been with DNS so probably @ada…
Also thanks for the nudge to get that outage on https://twitter.com/beemstat – now done!
So back to this Twitter problem: can you ping support@beeminder.com where we can investigate under the assumption that it’s specific to your account at first. Then we can update this thread if it’s a more general bug.
