How to Resolve Delivery Issues
If you are experiencing issues sending or receiving emails, follow this diagnostic manual to identify and fix the problem.
Step 1: Perform a DNS Health Check
- Go to the "Diagnostics" tab.
- Click "Check Records".
- Verify that SPF and DKIM are showing as "VALID". If they are not, you must update your DNS records to establish sender trust.
Step 2: Audit Live Server Logs
- In the Diagnostics tab, click "View Logs".
- Monitor the terminal output for messages like "Connection refused" or "Rejected by recipient."
- Use these logs to identify if your IP is blacklisted or if there is a syntax error in your configuration.
Step 3: Managing the Mail Queue
If emails are stuck and not being delivered:
- Check the Mail Queue counter.
- If the volume is high, click "Flush Queue" to force an immediate transmission attempt.
- If the queue contains spam, use "Clear All" to permanently delete the pending messages.
CRITICAL AUDIT: If your Mail Queue suddenly spikes to thousands of messages, one of your accounts may be compromised. Clear the queue and reset all email passwords immediately.
