Pre-Expansion Trouble

Is this a bad sign? Blizz brought down servers for regular Tuesday morning down-time. But this is rediculous. It is almost 1:30pm PST and the servers are all still grayed out. They say its some problem with the mail system. This makes me feel a little uneasy. This kind of stuff happening this close to a major release is, to me, disconcerting. C'mon Blizz - i need to get my steady fix of daily quests.
