Can't really help other than to say we don't see anything like that.

Looked at logs for yesterday - precisely zero 421 Service Temporarily 
Unavailable responses from cluster1a? (both).
Some for other clusters, e.g. cluster10a

If stats helps, we delivered over 15,000 messages to cluster1.(us|eu|uk) - but 
zero to cluster1a - didn't need to drop to lower prio mx

[mailop] MessageLabs "cluster1a*" MX records

2021-01-26 Thread Luke via mailop
Starting very precisely on January 6th, we started to see a number of
previously reliable domains turn up with secondary MX records that look
like these:

cluster1a.us.messagelabs.com
cluster1a.eu.messagelabs.com
cluster1a.uk.messagelabs.com

The domains with these secondary records have primary mx records that look
like these:

cluster1.us.messagelabs.com
cluster1.eu.messagelabs.com
cluster1.uk.messagelabs.com

Starting on January 6th, successful deliveries to these domains declined
about 50%, but did not drop to zero. Engagement at these domains has
remained steady. However we are now seeing *tons *of *421 Service
Temporarily Unavailable *responses from the secondary MX records while
still seeing successful deliveries to the primary MX record.

Curious to hear if anyone else is seeing something similar or if anyone
can help me understand what might be going on with these cluster1a* MX
records.

Here are a few example domains:

funaisoken.co.jp
cimb.com
stockland.com.au
travelex.com

Would love to hear any thoughts or insights.

Cheers,
Luke
