Email forwarding not working - stopped 8 or 9 December (Australian time)

12/9/2011 18:04

I have had a .com domain with Dynadot with email forwarding for ~3 years with no problems, however for the last couple of days I have not received any emails sent to addresses on this domain.

Emails sent directly to my ISP domain are received with no problems so the issue is not at my ISP's end.

I have checked the forwarding settings againt my domain and all appears to be in order.

Please advise

Thanks for that.

There is no way I would be receiving anything like 500 emails per day - unless I'm suddenly receiving massive amounts of SPAM from somewhere.

In any case the inidcations are that emails sent to my domain are still being accepted by your server, so I shall await the outcome of your tech investigation with eager anticipation.

Thanks & regs

Email forwarding limits are addressed in our help section:

Are there limits to email forwarding?

Yes, there are a couple of different limits to our email forwarding:

You can specify up to 10 domain emails to be forwarded.
We will forward up to 500 emails per day for your domain name. Any emails above that limit will not be accepted by our email forwarding server. The email will either bounce or be delayed until you are under your 500 email limit again.
You cannot respond using your domain email address as this is only a forwarding service, meaning you can only receive emails to your domain email address.
You can only use our email forwarding if you are using our name servers. If you are using someone else's name servers, you will need to set up your email forwarding settings on those name servers.

Want access to unlimited email addresses for your domain without any limits? Check out our Pro version Email Plan.

From Help Section: Account & Domain Management > Domain Settings > Are there limits to email forwarding?

As for your specific account, our tech team will be looking into this on the next business day.

Can you please direct me to the relevant information on your site regarding forwarding limits? I cannot find any such reference.

In any case, wouldn't you notify me of my having exceeded such a limit?

According to my ISP there is no failure message - emails sent to my domain address **are** being accepted by your server at IP address 50.112.123.111 (which appears to be an Amazon server farm).

I await your advice.

regards

Hello,

Perhaps your account has reached its forwarding limit. Our tech team will take a look when they return to the office on the next business day.

I have still received nothing - for 3 days now.

My ISP has run a trace and confirmed that emails sent to my domain are being received by your server at IP address 50.112.123.111

Can you please investigate and advise.
