Why an e-mail does not reach a recipient can have several causes:

  • The email has been pre-blocked by the email provider. Solution: Specify explicitly in the spam filter that e-mails from orimoto.de and orimoto.eu should not be filtered.
  • The e-mail inbox is full. Solution: Archive or empty the e-mail inbox.
  • The e-mail program (app) that retrieves the e-mails filters out the e-mail. Solution: Retrieve e-mail directly from the e-mail provider.
