Check Email Inbox Settings

  1. Verify that emails from Almabase are not being filtered out by your email client.

  2. Look for the emails in your spam or junk folders first.

Manage Focused Inbox in Outlook

If Focused Inbox is filtering out Almabase emails:

This process varies depending on your email provider. For personal email clients like Gmail, refer to their help documentation for allowlisting instructions.

About Delivery Failures πŸ‘‡

Two kinds of delivery failures can happen in replies sent to bulk email communications sent through Almabase:

  1. Unable to connect to recipient server: This happens when proper DNS records are not in place. Please check if the correct MX record is in place for the email domain.

  2. The email account that you tried to reach does not exist. : This happens when there is an issue with the mail server configuration of the college or university (outgoing emails from the alumni subdomain will fail to be sent outside the organization). In this case, emails sent to the Almabase email domain should be routed to the internet.
