This accident is making me realize how much our startup is dependent on email notifications. I am also even more concern now about all those 3rd party APIs which we use. The worse thing ever, 404 returned by Mandill api just broke our scripts execution chain. We are rewriting code so that issues with 3rd party services do not fully break our service. Ehhh... We learn it a hard way, that should be an obvious practice.
