Upstream power work will cause service disruptions
2015-04-17
Our upstream is performing power maintenance work tonight, April 17, starting at 19h PDT and continuing until Saturday, April 18 at 10h PDT. This will cause brief service interruptions when the power is switched over at the beginning and end of the work, hopefully no more than a few minutes on either end of the work. All mail will be delivered. Thanks for your patience.

Lists are delayed due to maintenance

Security is not a crime!
2015-01-06
We reject the implication from the Spanish state that using email with proper security measures is evidence of criminal activity. Here's our statement about recent arrests in Spain.
We updated our canary statement.

Our canary statement received its normal quarterly update.
New certificates deployed!
2014-10-15
In our seemingly continous saga to improve security for our users, we updated our certificates today to phase out some older crypto. Now we are using SHA256 and 4096bit certificates, this may result in very old clients (Windows XP SP2, Android 2.2) to no longer work. Unfortunately, we cannot continue to support those and ask that you upgrade. Check out our new certificate fingerprints and learn how to verify them.
SSLv3 disabled due to Poodle vulnerability
2014-10-15
Due to a security vulnerability disclosed on the internet, we have disabled the SSLv3 protocol on our servers. If you are suddenly having difficulty logging in, please take a moment to look to see if there is a newer version of the software you are using to connect to Riseup. Only very old, and otherwise vulnerable software, will fail to connect with SSLv3 disabled.
lists back up and delivering.
2014-08-10
The list machine has not been delivering mail since the power outage. We just brought it up and mail is zipping out, but please be patient for the machine to catch up. Thanks.
riseup systems are down due to power work.
2014-08-09
Our upstream host did some power work last night that knocked us offline, and some more this morning. The power work is now over and we're working on bringing stuff back up. We hope to have everything back up and running soon. Saturdays are great days to get off the internet! Thanks for your patience.
riseup has a new webmail!
2014-08-07

Please find out the new hidden service address and replace the old one you were using with the new one to continue to use Riseup's Tor hidden services!
