Not Receiving Emails? Why Mail Stops Arriving and How to Fix It

When email stops arriving, the cause is usually a broken MX record after a website or DNS change, a full mailbox, an inbox rule, or real mail being quarantined as spam. Checking those four things finds most missing mail.

Try this first

  1. Send yourself a test from a personal account
  2. Check spam, junk and quarantine folders
  3. Look for inbox rules or forwarding you didn’t set up
  4. Check your mailbox storage
  5. Confirm the domain hasn’t expired
  6. Look up your MX records with an online DNS checker

When it’s more than a quick fix

If the MX records are wrong, the domain expired or you find rules you didn’t create, it’s a setup or security problem that needs fixing at the source.

Questions

Why did my email stop working after I changed my website?

Moving a website often changes DNS, and if the email (MX) records weren’t copied over, mail goes nowhere.

Can I still get the emails I missed?

Sometimes. Sending servers retry for a day or two, so fixing the problem fast lets delayed messages arrive.
