The send email action is not working for me, does anyone else experience this problem? I use a business and a team account, on both the send email action is not working. Can anyone help? Sincerely Rien. ---

I just tested it and nothing was received in my inbox although the action history states that it works. Strange… maybe a delay? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/0/a/0a726a9dcc2424226c36caea8dab5f930a6baec3.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/7/c/7c29a28680401e9d36bd3ef953ee3ef2cfdcee0b.png) Edit\* 25 mins and still nothing received in the inbox so it really seems to be a bug. Note: Even though the email failed to send, the action consumed an update. ---

Status says this is resolved but my clients are still unable to send emails. Error comes up when they send email. ---

I’m still getting errors too. Maybe Glide closed the status incident prematurely, or there’s another issue at play here? ---
