There appears to be some sort of global network problem across countries in Europe and India
Seem to have gone away. Quite likely that the local country servers will put up this error when they have a problem connecting to the main hub systems in Finland.
Thanks,

Yes, and no. Of course, I agree that planned and even unplanned downtime should be communicated to those who need to know as early/soon as possible.

But still, sending of an email does have a cost associated with it. Excluding the cost for developing a system/mechanism to send emails to a list of those who need to know, there are still costs that you can allocate to the activity; cost of the time for the person doing the sending, cost of the time for the person or persons sorting why some messages were not delivered, cost you can allocate to the use of processing time, storage, and network bandwidth, etc. I.e., this type of activity is not "free" for any organization, even if there's no separately charged fee per sent email message by the ISP.
