All the affected services excepting Wii Mail have fully recovered. We still are working on Wii Mail.

Monitoring
Wii Mail has been disabled for the time being to investigate what is causing all the connections to stay stuck. Other services seem to be working fine and will be monitored.

Identified
We've noticed a lot of active connections at the same time that are not getting completed to the Mail Service. This seems to be contributing to the attack.

Update
The attacker's IP has been blocked from accessing any of our services. We're monitoring now.
