US IMAP email server downtime

On 22 July 2026 at 10:00 am US/Central time (UTC -5) one of our US IMAP email servers will be shut down for infrastructure maintenance. The server will be offline during the maintenance and the expected downtime is 6 hours.

Affected customers will be notified individually via email.

No incoming mail will be lost while the server is offline. Mail that arrives during the maintenance will be deferred and delivered once the mail server is back online.

We realize that the timing of this relocation is not ideal. If you have business-critical mailboxes and would like them to be available during the maintenance then please email support@opalstack.com or reply to this message to make arrangements to have your mailboxes migrated to a different IMAP server prior to the scheduled maintenance date.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this maintenance then please email the Opalstack support team for assistance.

iCloud blocking US and DE SMTP

At this time Apple's iCloud email service is blocking messages sent from our SMTP servers to Apple-hosted domains including icloud.com, me.com, and custom email domains that use the iCloud email service.

We've raised a ticket with Apple to determine the cause.

  • The block was lifted as of 0600 UTC today.
