Email Quota Issue

[Joshua Smith]

What's the status?

I filed a production issue yesterday, and I'm still sitting in the red zone at 100 emails transmitted.

The App Engine Status page, as usual, is completely unaware of this showstopper problem. (A more worthless dashboard I've never experienced….)

Last night, "Ikai Lan (Google)" <ika...@google.com> said:

How long is this batch job going to take? My users are getting concerned.

I am glad it is not only my app because I had started wondering if I am doing something wrong.... 

This is very serious!!! In the three years I have been using App Engine the severity of this seconds only a stuck indexes issue I faced a couple of years ago. I have 10s of users calling asking what is going on with e-mail. 

I hope you can see the picture below, the dashboard e-mail quotas has gone crazy...

Despite Ikai's e-mail the production issue I opened (6899) 36 hours ago is in "needed more info" status. I hope it gets resolved before weekend rolls in PST

FYI: The condition has cleared in my app.

Interesting side note: I send all the emails from tasks, so if something goes wrong (like this), it retries. Well it turns out that every one of those failures is counted as a Recipient Emailed, so my email usage today is far, far larger than normal.

Isn't it cool how every time something goes wrong in GAE, they somehow end up making more money? Glad I'm a stockholder ;)

Just cleared for me too, but the huge numbers are still there. I am sending some of the notification e-mails from tasks too so the issue I see might be related to your observation.

The problem has come and gone a few times this week so I will wait a bit before I declare victory.
