Troubleshooting

How to fix Mail.de not working

Mail.de is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach mail.de over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check the Mail.de status page

    Open the official status page first and see whether problem reports are running above their normal level. If the login form hangs and the inbox stays empty in a second browser, the trouble sits on their side, so nothing on your machine needs changing.

  2. Sign out of webmail and back in

    Sign out of the webmail or the app, close the tab, and sign back in. A stale session drops you at the login screen even though your details are correct, and a fresh sign-in clears it in seconds.

  3. Re-enter the saved password in your mail app

    A stored password in Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Windows Mail can go stale, so delete it and type it again. Stale logins break sends. If it still fails, check the outgoing server is set to SMTP with authentication on, because a changed password leaves the old one stored.

  4. Clear the app cache, then reinstall

    On Android, go to Settings, Apps, pick the mail app, then Storage, and tap Clear cache. That clears a frozen or blank inbox without touching your account. If the app still will not open, uninstall it and install it again from the store.

While Mail.de is down: what to use instead

  • Gmail Use Gmail to send and receive messages while the Mail.de service is unavailable.
  • Microsoft Outlook Use Outlook for email access if you already have a Microsoft account.
  • Proton Mail Use Proton Mail when you need a separate mailbox for messages during the outage.
  • Yahoo Mail Use Yahoo Mail to handle routine email until Mail.de works again.

About

What happens when Mail.de goes down

Mail.de is a German email service with webmail, mobile apps, IMAP access, and SMTP sending for personal and business accounts, and you may use it as your main inbox. An outage interrupts login, sending, receiving, and syncing.

Webmail login often fails first, with the page hanging on a blank screen or returning an error after you enter your details. The mobile app cannot sync. Mail sent through IMAP or SMTP gets stuck in the outbox, incoming messages do not arrive, folders do not refresh, and the app keeps showing an old inbox. Problems tend to be partial or regional, because one data center, one DNS route, one ISP path, or one mail server can fail while other accounts keep working; the status here reflects user problem reports above their normal level rather than a ping from this site, so a modest spike can still mean a real outage for you.

Questions

Mail.de FAQ

Is Mail.de down right now?

The status at the top of this page shows whether problem reports for the service are above their usual level, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. The official status page at mailstatus.de is the place to check for a confirmed outage. If webmail and the app both fail on one device while another device on a different network works, the fault is likely local; try another browser, clear cookies, restart the router, or switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data.

Why does the Mail.de app keep asking for my password?

A saved password can go stale after you change it, and the app may keep sending the old one. Remove the account in the app and add it again with the password typed by hand. If webmail still opens with that password, the mailbox is reachable and the problem sits in the app's stored login.

Why do new messages show in webmail but not in the Mail.de app?

Background refresh may be off, or the phone's battery saver may be limiting the app. Check that notifications and background data are allowed for the app, then open it to force a sync. If mail appears after you open it, the account is fine and the delay is on the device.

Can I set up my Mail.de account in Outlook or Thunderbird?

Yes, the mailbox works in desktop clients such as Outlook and Thunderbird; you need the incoming and outgoing server details from your account settings. If the client rejects the login, re-enter the password and compare the server details with the ones in your account settings.

Why does Mail.de webmail log me out while I am writing a message?

Blocked cookies or a private browsing window can cut the session short, and a long idle period can do the same. Allow cookies for the site and keep the tab open while you write; if the session drops, copy the draft before you refresh.

How we track Mail.de

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Mail.de, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Mail.de, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Mail.de's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
