Hi @User_267 ,

 

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

  1. Check Email Log:

    • Navigate to "System Mailboxes" in the application navigator.
    • Open the mailbox related to the email account you are having issues with.
    • Look for any error messages or logs that might provide more details about why the email is being ignored.
  2. Check Inbound Actions:

    • Go to "Inbound Actions" in the application navigator.
    • Review the inbound actions related to the mailbox and check if there are any conditions or scripts that might be causing the email to be ignored.
  3. Check Scripting:

    • If you have any inbound email scripts or business rules, review them for any conditions that might be causing the email to be ignored.
    • Look for script logs or errors in the "System Log" or "Script Logs" to identify any issues.
  4. Check Email Properties:

    • Open the ignored email record.
    • Check the properties of the email record for any specific flags or conditions that might indicate why it's being ignored.
  5. Check Conditions for Ignoring Emails:

    • If you have custom conditions for ignoring emails, review them to ensure they are correctly configured.
  6. Check Email Properties:

    • Open the email record in question.
    • Look for any properties or fields that might indicate why it's being ignored.

 

Thanks,

Hi @User_267 

The instance has settings wants to ignore emails from any particular email address.

 

Navigate to System Mailboxes > Administration > Email Address Filters and check if that email or domain exists in the list. for more steps go to below link.
