Common problems

Common problems with email forwarding include:

Undelivered forwarded emails

Problem: Forwarded emails do not arrive in the destination mailbox.

Cause: The most common cause is an incorrect domain setup in DNS.

Solution: Check that your hosting has the domain’s MX records correctly pointed, and that messages are actually arriving in the mailbox you are forwarding from (for example, via the WebMailinterface). Also check the SPAM folder. If the emails are not there either, create an SPF record on the domain, or add WEDOS to the existing SPF record, following the guide Email – SPF Record.
