Hi,

We have been facing an issue since last night where Azure Email Services is not sending emails immediately. The emails are going into a queued state, and after a few hours they are eventually getting delivered.

This is impacting our production customers. Some users are unable to log in because they are not receiving the required emails (such as OTPs or login links) on time.

Could someone please help us understand what is going on or if there is any known issue with Azure Email Services at the moment? This is very critical for us, as it directly affects our production users and their ability to access the application.
