Mailbox troubleshooting
What to do when mail doesn't arrive or can't be sent.
For: AdminsSteps
- Open Settings → Mailboxes and check the status badges for Sending and Receiving.
- “Sign-in failed”: check the username and password; many providers require an app password.
- A mailbox is paused after 5 failed sign-ins in a row. Update the password, select Test sending and Test receiving, then Resume.
- Nothing arriving? Check the watched folders and the import start time, then use Sync now in the inbox.
- Sending fails with a secure-connection error: check the port and security setting (587 + STARTTLS or 465 + SSL/TLS).
- Private or internal server addresses are blocked for security; use the server's public host name.
