If your Gmail is not receiving incoming emails, iget help 1-866-719-1006 tollfree t can be due to several common issues ranging from filter settings to storage limits. Here’s a comprehensive checklist to troubleshoot and fix the problem:

Top Reasons Gmail Isn’t Receiving Emails (and How to Fix Them)

 1. Check Spam or Promotions Folders

• Go to Spam, Promotions, or All Mail tabs.
  
  
• Emails might be filtered incorrectly.
  
  

Fix: Mark important emails as "Not spam" or move them to your Inbox.

 2. Check Gmail Storage Space

• Gmail shares storage with Google Drive and Photos. If you're out of space, you won't receive new emails.
  
  

Go to: Google Storage Overview

• If it's 100% full, delete large files or buy more storage.
  
  

 3. Check Filters and Blocked Addresses

Filters may be auto-archiving, deleting, or forwarding your emails.

Go to: Gmail is not receiving incoming emails

1. Gmail Settings  (top right) > See All Settings
   
   
2. Click Filters and Blocked Addresses
   
   
3. Remove or edit filters that might be misdirecting emails.
   
   

 4. Check Forwarding Settings

Emails might be forwarded to another address without keeping a copy.

Go to:  Gmail is not receiving incoming emails

1. Gmail Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP
   
   
2. If forwarding is on, make sure “Keep Gmail’s copy in the inbox” is selected.
   
   

 5. Check for POP/IMAP Conflicts

If you're using an email client (like Outlook, Apple Mail), POP settings could be removing emails from the server.

Solution:

• Use IMAP instead of POP for syncing across devices.
  
  

 6. Check Email Filters in Third-Party Apps

If you use a mail app (Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.), it could be marking emails as read or archiving them automatically.

Try logging in to Gmail in a web browser and check if emails show up there.

 7. Test by Sending Yourself an Email

• Use another account (or your own Gmail) to send a test message.
  
  
• If it arrives in “All Mail” but not “Inbox,” it's likely a filter or label issue.
  
  

 8. Disable Browser Extensions

Ad blockers, security tools, or Gmail extensions may interfere.

Try Gmail in:

• Incognito/Private Mode
  
  
• A different browser
  
  

 9. Check Domain or MX Settings (for Custom Domains)

If you're using Gmail with a custom domain (via Google Workspace), make sure:

• MX records are set up correctly.
  
  
• The domain hasn’t expired.
  
  

 10. Google Account Issues or Suspensions

Rarely, Gmail may restrict activity due to:

• Suspicious behavior
  
  
• Policy violations
  
  

Check for warnings at: Google Account Security
