    • If you are using an email server within your organization (rather than an email provider), your IT department or provider will want to verify that Reverse DNS has been configured correctly to make sure that the IP address sending the email will match the IP address entered as the Host in the Mail Settings Properties.

  • Even if you have all of your mail settings set correctly, sometimes spam blockers will still misidentify your email as spam. Ask the intended recipient to verify that your email is not in a spam quarantine or have them look into whitelisting your domain or email address. He or she may need to contact their own IT department or provider to accomplish this.

  • Message formats may not be configured correctly. Return email addresses are required.
