About Proton Mail outages
Is Proton Mail down right now?
No, Proton Mail is not down right now: mail.proton.me answered our check at 18:21 UTC, and Proton Mail’s status page reports no problems.
When was Proton Mail last down?
Our checks haven’t found Proton Mail down since we started checking it on 26 Oct 2026.
How often does Proton Mail go down?
Since we started checking Proton Mail on 26 Oct 2026, our checks every 2 minutes have not found Proton Mail down. Proton Mail’s status page reported no incidents in that time.
How does Uptimecheck check Proton Mail?
We request https://mail.proton.me/ every 2 minutes from New York, London and Stockholm. Any answer below HTTP 500 within 10 seconds counts as up, since large sites often answer automated requests with 403. A failure only counts once a second check confirms it. We also read Proton Mail’s official status page every 2 minutes.
What can I do when Proton Mail is down?
Check Proton Mail’s official status page for updates and try again in a few minutes. If mail.proton.me works for us but not for you, try another network or browser, or clear your DNS cache. If your own product depends on Proton Mail, tell your customers on your status page before they email support.
Why is Proton Mail not working for me when it is up?
Our check shows that mail.proton.me answers. Your own network, a VPN, browser extensions, an outdated app or a problem with your account can still break Proton Mail for you alone. The common problems on this page list what usually helps, and when many people report the same problem, it shows here.
Can I get an alert when Proton Mail has an outage?
Yes. Start a free trial and Uptimecheck watches Proton Mail’s official status page for you and alerts you by email, SMS, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Telegram or webhook when it reports an outage, and again when it is resolved.
