Some Ashore users may be experiencing network outages. We're aware of the issue and are working on it urgently.
Changelog
23 Feb 2023
We’ve released a new feature that allows users to integrate their own email server with Ashore to send emails. You can do this from Profile > Email Settings. We’ve built this feature in response to an issue where emails sent to Microsoft365 servers were being quarantined.
