Is Posteo down right now?
Most users reach their mail without trouble today, and the Posteo status on this page rests on steady user reports. Should Posteo down reports jump all at once, that calm picture would flip fast.
One silent mail app is not proof of an outage. Posteo has no app of its own, so a client fault often looks like a platform fault from the outside.
Is Posteo down for me or everyone?
Open posteo.de in a browser and sign in to the webmail. If your inbox loads there, the is Posteo down for me answer is your mail app or its password, not Posteo. Delivery apps teach the same lesson, since a Postmates checkout fault usually sits in the app, not the platform.
What makes the Posteo two-factor code fail?
The webmail login asks for a one-time code that changes every few seconds. A phone clock that runs off true time builds codes the server will not take.
Typing too slowly hurts as well. A code that rolls over while you type it is dead, and the login asks for the next one.
Does strong account protection lock my mail app out?
Strong account protection locks mail apps out on purpose. With that guard on, the normal password stops working in clients, and the app shows a login error in a loop.
How do mail filters sort my Posteo inbox?
Mail filters in the webmail settings sort new mail as it lands. You build a rule from a sender, a word in the subject, or a list, and pick the folder the mail should go to. The rules run on the server, so your mail app shows the same sorted state. A filter list that grows wild gets hard to read, so clear rules pay off. Mail sorted into the wrong folder follows a filter rule, not a Posteo outage.
When does the migration assistant stall?
The migration assistant pulls mail from your old provider in the background. A huge old mailbox or a wrong old password stops the run, and the status sits still.
Common Posteo Problems and Fixes
Posteo faults split cleanly between the browser login and mail apps. These steps check the code, the app password, and your storage.
Set your phone clock to automatic time
One-time codes come from the clock on your device. Switch the phone to automatic time and date, then type the fresh code at once.
Create an app password for your mail app
In the Posteo settings you can add app passwords for mail clients. Give your app its own password there and enter it in the app in place of the normal one.
Turn the extra account protection off to test
The extra protection blocks mail apps by design. Switch it off for one test login in your app. If mail flows then, the guard was the cause.
Free space when the mailbox shows full
A full mailbox takes no new mail. Empty the trash and the spam folder in the webmail, then check the storage bar in the settings.
Restart a stalled migration with fresh data
Open the migration assistant and check the old account data it holds. Fix the old password there and start the run again from the status page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my mail app ask for the password again and again?
With strong account protection on, the app needs its own app password. Create one in the Posteo settings and enter it in the app once.
How do I sign in with two-factor protection on?
Enter your normal password first, then the current one-time code from your code app. The code changes fast, so type it straight away.
Is there a Posteo app in the stores?
No. Posteo runs in the browser and as a web app on your home screen. For a store app feel, add your account to a mail app.
Does the two-factor code also guard mail apps?
No. The code guards the browser login. Mail apps sign in with your password or with an app password you create for them.
Can I move mail from my old provider in the webmail?
Yes. The migration assistant in the settings imports mail from many old providers. It runs in the background and shows its state on its page.
When is my Posteo mailbox full?
The settings show your storage use as a bar. When it hits the top, new mail bounces until you delete old mail or attachments.
