Why am I not receiving email?

Short answer: Check webmail first to find out whether the account or just one app is affected.

Try these steps

  1. Send a test message from a separate account and check Spam, Junk and other inbox tabs.
  2. Review mailbox storage, rules, forwarding and blocked senders.
  3. If webmail works but the app does not, check its connection and sync settings.

When to ask for help

For a business mailbox, ask the administrator to check service status and delivery logs rather than changing domain records yourself.
