This one seems constructive, concerning, outlines events prior to today, and was posted before your post:
"Mandrill also recently got rid of their status page. A few months ago, their API has started returning nginx errors, and their status page looked like a Christmas tree; every reload would indicate different green/orange statuses. The certificate their MX servers uses is invalid (wrong domain), which prevents email delivery from compliant Danish email servers."
That's true. None of those affect the way I use Mandrill, which is perhaps why I didn't pay too much attention to it, but it doesn't paint a good picture for sure.
