Hi @SAS21
To unblock the email address and reset the failed count:
- Go to the Bounce Email Address [sys_blocked_email_address] table.
- Locate the blocked email address.
- Set Failed Count to 0.
- Set State to New.
- Select Save.
Note: Before resetting the address, review the Bounce Email Address Logs [sys_blocked_email_address_log] table to understand why previous delivery attempts failed. If the underlying issue is not resolved, the address will be blocked again after 10 failed attempts.
Refer this 2 KBs.
