Troubleshoot email that is not sending or arriving Print

Start by separating mailbox access problems from mail-delivery problems.

Steps

  1. Sign in to webmail and send a message to an external address. Ask that address to reply.
  2. Check mailbox storage, Spam folders, forwarding rules, and the full recipient address.
  3. If webmail works but an app fails, verify the app hostname, port, encryption, username, and SMTP authentication.
  4. For a delivery failure, keep the bounce message and note the sender, recipient, and approximate time. Include those details in a support ticket.

Good to know

DNS MX records control where incoming mail goes. A recent DNS change or external email service can route messages away from this hosting account. Do not change MX or SPF records randomly while investigating.
