Hi Ernst, It was not a test run, we recently switched templates and the parameters inside the new templates were not correct. It's now fixed. Also, the email was legitimate as we updated our controllers so all probes disconnected for a short while. The new from address is so we can honor unsubscribe requests for just this email. Going forward, every email from RIPE Atlas will come from atlas+<numeric code>@ripe.net Apologies for the mistake, the next time your probe disconnects you will get a proper email again. Kind regards, Johan ter Beest RIPE Atlas Team On Fri, 5 Jun 2026 at 12:25, Ernst J. Oud <ernstoud@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

Just received an email from atlas+e76c0ca5@ripe.net saying:

—- Probe is disconnected ()

Ernst J.,

Your probe has been disconnected from the RIPE Atlas infrastructure since 2026-06-05 09:23:26 UTC.

—-

As shown above, no probe ID is mentioned and the sender’s email address is a bit weird since normal status messages come from no-reply@ripe.net. Also all my probes are functional.

A test run at RIPE gone wrong? Regards,
