Hints

If adding multiple email addressed to be unblocked, the emails will need to be separated using one of the following methods:

Type Example
semicolon  ; email1@blockedemail.com;email2@blockedemail.com;email3@blockedemail.com
dot  . Its not recommended to use dot as a separator for emails.
space  ' ' email1@blockedemail.com email2@blockedemail.com email3@blockedemail.com
tab  '    ' email1@blockedemail.com    email2@blockedemail.com    email3@blockedemail.com
Enter '↵'

email1@blockedemail.com

email2@blockedemail.com

email3@blockedemail.com

If you are getting a list of emails from a spreadsheet, directly copy the email addresses into the text box.

Why do emails get blocked

Emails may get blocked for a number of reasons, what is listed here are the most common examples of emails getting blocked.

Sending content that looks like spam

This could include the following:

  • Weird or scam-like subject lines.
  • Written all in caps.
  • Frequent or random capitalization.
  • Excessive punctuation, especially "$" and "!".
  • Strange spacing or excessive amounts of blank space.
  • Poor spelling.
  • Frequent variations in text colour and size.
Blocks by an ISP

Internet service providers (ISPs) consider every spam complaint to be an official complaint from their customers. This means that if enough recipients mark your email as spam, the ISP may respond by blocking future emails from you.  This might be also due to repeatedly sending to invalid email addresses.

Note: There may be other reasons why an email will get blocked.
