    Dear Jotform Support Team,

    I am writing to report a critical issue we are experiencing with our Jotform account. Since approximately 8:45 AM today, we have noticed that none of the emails generated by our forms are being sent.

    Upon checking the account history, we have confirmed that all email sends are showing a "failed" status from that time onwards. This situation is significantly impacting our operations, as we rely on these notifications to follow up on our customers' requests.

    We have verified our email settings and have not made any recent changes that could have caused this issue. We would appreciate it if you could investigate this matter with urgency and inform us of the cause of the problem and an estimated time for its resolution.

    We are available to provide any additional information you may need.

    Thank you in advance for your prompt attention and assistance.

    Best regards,

    Jean Mahecha

    According to our logs, the emails were successfully sent to jean.mahecha@cng.edu. Please check your spam or junk folder. Consider whitelisting Jotform's sender email or domain to avoid future issues. Also, make sure your form's email fields and conditions are set up correctly. To prevent email bounce issues, please use valid, correctly formatted email addresses. Feel free to let me know if it’s still not working.

    Hi Jean,

    Thanks for reaching out to us for help. When I cloned and tested your form, everything worked the way it was supposed to. Take a look at the screenshot below to see my results:

    After checking, I see that are using a custom sender email. Jotform does not use the Custom Sender Address, as some providers block it. I would recommend switching to noreply@jotform.com or to add an SMTP. Resolving this problem is easy: you need to remove your verified email address from the account settings. Verified emails do not have don’t have an edit icon, they can only be removed. 

    Verified Emails: Auto responder emails are not working Image 1 Screenshot 20 Screenshot 10 Screenshot 10 Screenshot 102You can easily set up a custom SMTP to use your email sender as provider. Let me walk you through it:

    1. Go to the Settings page while logged in to your Jotform account and click on Add Sender Email in the Sender Emails section.

    2. In the window that opens, select Custom and click on the Continue button.

    3. Enter your email provider's details, click on Send Test Email to check if it’s set up correctly, and then click on Save.

    Custom Sender Email: Emails Failed Image 5 Screenshot 135Now you should select your custom SMTP in your email properties under email settings in Form Builder, and if you’re using Workflow Builder, do the same there. Check below to see how it looks in Form Builder:
