If you are having trouble with receiving emails, it can help to go through these basic questions to pinpoint the root of the issue.
- Is their email correctly entered? (No extra spaces, special characters due to copying and pasting the email, incorrect email domain)
- How is the employee/user set up to receive emails/notifications?
- Are all of your employees not getting these emails or just some?
- When did the issues with receiving emails begin?
- Are you getting any emails from the system at all?
- Could these emails be in your junk or spam folder?
- Is the company spam filter blocking the email?
- Has your domain been configured to allow emails from our products?
Steps you can take to try and resolve emails issues:
- Double-check their email address.
- Double-check the employee/user setup and try to send emails to other users with a similar setup.
- Check your spam/junk folder for emails sent from "donotreply@birddoghr.com"
- Double-check that your domain has been set for your organization's spam filtering service.
- Check with filtering service for any "blacklisting" of the domain or IP.
- Check with filtering service to add "birddoghr.com" as a safe sender or IP
- Check with filtering service to add SPF record for "include:spf.birddoghr.com"
- Add SPF record for "include:spf.birddoghr.com" to DNS
- If added – sometimes TLS is turned on / set to high priority – this needs to be "relaxed" – turned off for this IP address as TLS is saying we are sending the email encrypted. Our emails are encrypted when sent from our system.
