Mailbox quota exceeded

Not Receiving mails in Inbox

If the mailbox quota of the exceeds you may stop receiving the mails while in POP3 protocol you will be able to send mails but you  won't receive mails, you need to login to the plesk control panel and check if the particular mailbox has been overused.

Resolution : If you have fixed mailbox quota, we will suggest to upgrade from the present plan or clear some mails to free up disk space. If it is VPS you can increase the mailbox quota from the control panel.

 

Incorrect MX Records of the Domain

The Mail Exchange (MX) record is a part of your DNS zone and it determines which server is currently handling your emails. You can check your MX record from the following website:
