I don't know if MailChimp is on its way down or what. I recently reset my phone before realizing that 2FA would be affected. Now, I was encouraged to enable 2FA, but I can't get back into my account and MailChimp isn't getting back to me about what I can do if I don't have any backup codes. I know it's a tough situation, security-wise, but I can send my passport if they need it!

From my experience, mailchimp's transactional email story is a bit of a convoluted mess with mandrill.
I remember MailChimp/Mandrill removed their free tier, making me move to Sendgrid.

Only because of that I hope they go under sooner than later.

Ouch, that forced transition was certainly developer-hostile, but I don't want to see Mailchimp go bankrupt just because they pulled the plug on me (and switching to Sendgrid was basically an improvement for me, anyhow).
