GCE SendGrid Timeout

Question

My app has been working fine. Today, sending email through SendGrid has started failing. All configuration that worked before, is no longer working.

This is what I'm seeing in the log:

SEND RESULT: {"message":"connect ETIMEDOUT","status":400}   null
{"message":"connect ETIMEDOUT","status":400}

Any thoughts on why Google Compute Engine all of the sudden doesn't work with SendGrid?

Answer 1

SendGrid had a small maintenance window on Dec 13th -- I wonder if it coincided with when you asked this question?

You can always check http://status.sendgrid.com/ for system status updates.
