Feed down messages when feed not down...

I don't know if this due to the Broadcastify change over or what, but I have just now received "Feed down" text messages for two of my feeds that are showing as online on the site. Although I have those messages also set to go to e-mail, they are now going only to text. What happened to the e-mails? Yesterday I got feed down messages that said the feeds had been down for an hour (they weren't). What happened to getting those messages for when the feeds had been down for 15 minutes?

The notice you received today and the one last night were due to maintenance being performed on the RadioReference.com web site which resulted in the site thinking your feed had been offline. If you also received one on Monday it would have been due to the Amazon AWS outage that took down RadioReference.com along with several other web sites.

Glad to know it was just a glitch. What is strange is that I have 5 feeds (4 on one machine, one on another). Both share the same router and internet connection. I only received the "feed down" message for one feed...and the same one each time.

Granted, I'm not complaining. The last time I received a "feed down" message it was due to the catastrophic failure of a PC power supply (smoke and all!...just a little "pucker factor" there).
