Check Your Spam and Trash Folders
One of the most frustrating things that can happen when you’re expecting an email is to never receive it. You contact the sender to ask if they sent it, and they say yes- but you still can’t find it anywhere. If this happens to you, one of the first places you should check is your spam or junk mail folder. Sometimes, emails end up there by mistake, especially if they contain attachments or links. If you still can’t find the message, it’s possible that it was lost in transit or delivered to the wrong email address. In this case, your best bet is to reach out to the sender and ask them to resend the message. By taking a few simple steps, you can ensure that you never miss an important email again.
Make Sure You’re Using the Correct Email Address
It’s important to use the correct email address when sending messages, whether you’re corresponding with friends, family, or colleagues. If you use the wrong email address, your message may not be delivered or it may go to the wrong person. In some cases, you may not even receive a delivery notification. To avoid any confusion, make sure that you’re using the correct email address before sending your message. You can double-check the address by looking at the recipient’s profile or contact information. If you’re still not sure, you can always ask the person directly before sending your message. With a little care and attention, you can ensure that your messages are always sent to the right location.
Verify That Messages Are Not Being Blocked by a Filter
To verify that messages are not being blocked by a filter, first check that the address is included in the list of allowed addresses in the Filters and Blocked Addresses tab. If it is, then messages from that address will be allowed through. Next, check your spam folder to see if the messages are being routed there. If they are, you can mark them as “not spam” to train your Gmail account to recognize them as legitimate mail. Finally, if you’re still not receiving messages from a particular sender, you can try contacting them to whitelist your email address with their service. By taking these steps, you can be sure that messages are not being blocked by a Gmail filter.
Try Using a Different Browser or Device
If you’re not seeing messages in your Gmail inbox, check to see if any of these issues are affecting your account:
- All of your messages are archived. If you can’t find a message that you think should be in your inbox, try looking for it in All Mail.
- Your account isn’t receiving new messages. Check to make sure you’re still signed in to your account, and that you have a good internet connection. If you’re using Gmail through your work, school, or other organization, learn how to get help with Gmail.
- You’ve changed how new messages appear in your Inbox. To undo this change: In the top right corner of Gmail, click Settings . Click Inbox type. Under “Inbox type,” select Default. At the bottom of the page, click Save Changes.
- Emails aren’t appearing from someone specific. If emails usually show up from someone but they’re suddenly missing, it could be because the person changed their email address or no longer has that email account.
