I am having trouble receiving email, but I can send without any problem. 1)
Please temporarily close your email client, and login to your web
based email account. Then, have someone (or even
yourself) send an email to your email address (from
anywhere). Wait a minute and "refresh" the screen.
If the email does not appear in your inbox (or your filtered
messages), please proceed to step2. If your email message(s) does
appear in your web based email, please proceed to step 4.
Or, if you were not able to login to your email account, please
verify that your username/password are correct, the email account presently
"exists" (via the
domain control
panel), that you are going to the
proper "location", and that your email was not disabled
(either related to a billing issue or possibly intentionally or
unintentionally disabled via the
domain control
panel). 2)
Login to your domain control
panel. Check to see if the disk quota usage for your
email user is over 90%. If you are over 90%, this means you
will either need to increase your quota (if space is available
under your domain, if not you can purchase additional disk space),
or delete messages/files stored on the server to free space.
In a simplified sense, the server currently has no space to store
incoming email. Once the disk quota usage is lowered, you should not have any trouble
receiving email. In addition, some emails previously sent to you by others may begin to arrive
in your inbox, after correcting the disk quota issue (partly
depending upon the time to live settings of the senders message,
something out of our control). Also, make sure you do not
have email forwarding/redirect enabled ("name" of
service varies
depending upon what type of server the domain in question is setup
on), as otherwise it may not be storing a local copy of your email
(you can tell if you have this service enabled by clicking on
"Mail" to the right of the user in question or by seeing
if "Redirect" states it is "On", within your
domain control
panel). If
your disk quota is below 90% and you do not have
forwarding/redirect enabled, and the problem persists, please
proceed to the next step. 3)
Is an email client or other application, which you are not aware
of, downloading your email? Try temporarily resetting your
password via your domain control
panel, and then retry step 1. If the problem
persists, please immediately contact our support
team (in doing so, you will obviously want to email from an
email address that is able to receive email properly, as otherwise
you will not receive their "response" - please also be
sure to include the email_address/username/password in question). 4)
If
you can view your messages in the web based email, but are still
having a problem receiving your mail into your email client, this
is most likely an issue with either your email client (As you are
able to send mail, and outgoing mail travels through your ISP).
Therefore, proceed to the next step.
5)
Double-check to be sure that you typed in the incoming mail server (in your account properties) correctly.
Be sure that the incoming mail server is typed in all lower case
with no capitals and no spaces. Unless
otherwise noted, it should read "yourname.com". If
the problem persists, please proceed to the next step. 6)
You might be having a routing issue of some kind, between our
server and your computer. Therefore, try entering the IP
address of your site/mail server with Pebblehaven. If you do
not have this information, please contact us.
If
the problem persists, please proceed to the next step. 7)
If you are receiving an error message when attempting to
send/receive, please do the following (do not if you are not
receiving any error message): The last alternative is to try
"clearing" your inbox of mail, and see if it
"refreshes" the connection with your email client.
To do so, simply login to your web
based email, and move all messages in your inbox to a
"saved" folder. After moving the mail, please try
to complete a send/receive without any errors. 8)
Please try shutting down your computer and then outward towards
your router. Then, turn them each back on, starting at your
router and then your computer last. Try to receive. If
the problem persists, please contact our support
team to make us aware of the issue. Yet, we also
recommend contacting a local networking or computer technician, as
whatever is causing the issue may be out of our control if your web
based email is functioning.
