This happened to me at the weekend. Sent out Saturday morning and Sunday morning around the same time.

I have changed my password but will have to see if it goes out this morning at the same time to see if changing the password works.

I've been reading around looking for some concrete fix but can't find anything.

Does anybody know what's going on with this?
