Postmark Challenge: Inbox Innovators Winner Announcement Delay

Hey all, just a quick update that we're aiming to announce the Postmark Challenge: Inbox Innovators winners early next week.

We received more submissions than anticipated (a good thing 🎉) which has led to a longer judging period. We want to make sure winners are selected intentionally and diligently.

Sorry all, and thanks for your patience!

Here we are, refreshing our inbox every so often... for contestants in an email innovation challenge, that's quite fitting 📧😄

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share a quick update — my project was recently hit by a wave of spam that maxed out some of its usage limits. Unfortunately, this meant that real users (including possibly the judges) weren’t able to access or interact with the app properly during that time.

I’ve since fixed the issue, and everything should be working as expected from June 20th onward. If you happened to try it before then, I’d really appreciate it if you could give it another look now. Thanks so much!

Hi Team,

I hope you are doing well, just a quick talk, you tried my App (Email AI assistant made using Gemini, Postmark and FastAPI).
You basically send a mail to [email protected] and receive an Ai-generated response of the question asked in the mail. I saw you tried my App (got a mail from [email protected]) but due to some issue the mail delivery got delayed by 3 mins. Can you please verify that, you received the mail.

Thank You!

Hello judges!
Just recently found out that the Redis provider I was using shutdown while you were testing the app so the email did not get processed. Please if you try again now, it should work perfectly! :)

Thank you! Since I'm among the last people to submit the challenge, I imagine that you haven't reviewed my submission yet.
