I sent an email to [email protected] with "get bridges" as the body by using my gmail. I didn't receive any response.

Is the service down? Is there something else I can do to get a list of bridges?

    In an attempt to reproduce your missing reply email, I sent a mail requesting bridges a couple of hours ago (also from a Gmail account). I'm also yet to receive a response. Perhaps others who know more about this service can help, or, alternatively, you could send a quick mail to [email protected], as listed on this page.

  • It seems there was a temporary problem with some component. However right now the service seems to work as expected.

I always use this feature to get new bridges but the address is different. I send "get bridges" to [email protected]. Actually I sent one to be sure about my answer (:D). It is working perfectly.

Also you can get new bridges through bridges.torproject.org.
