The top reasons for not receiving emails include:
- Full mailbox storage, causing incoming messages to bounce back.
- Incorrect or misspelled email address provided to senders.
- Email filters or spam settings misclassifying emails as junk.
- Server outages or network connectivity issues interrupting delivery.
- Email client misconfiguration such as wrong server settings or outdated passwords.
- Security blocks due to suspicious activity on your account.
- Sender or domain blacklisting by your email provider.
- Email account deactivation due to inactivity.
Other causes can be delays in email travel, misdirected emails by custom rules, or issues on the sender’s side that prevent successful delivery. Checking spam folders, verifying email addresses, freeing mailbox space, reviewing filters, and confirming account settings usually resolve most email reception problems.
