I didn't receive my test message at my Email Forwarding destination address and I didn't get a bounced message back
This problem usually lies with the destination address associated with your "Email Forwarding" address. If your email provider has a built-in Spam Filter, some or all of your messages sent through your "Email Forwarding" address will not be received. If you or the sender don't receive any bounced messages back, this is an indication of your email provider either picking up the message as Spam or blocking the usage of email sent through an "Email Forwarding" address.
You will need to contact your Destination Address Email Provider to find out why messages are being blocked on their end.
I am receiving duplicate messages in my email client
To determine if this issue lies with your email client or on our mail server, you may login to our Webmail Client and see if you are receiving duplicate messages. If you are, please contact us immediately at support@misk.com so that we can further assist you.
Please follow the steps below if you have determined that this is an issue with your email client and not our mail server.
- Check your Message Rules to be sure that copies are not being made to the Inbox and make sure that all your rules end in Stop Processing actions.
- Check the Task Manager to be sure that there is only one instance of your email client (e.g.: Outlook 2003) running.
- Example: Two instances of outlook.exe running can produce two messages arriving at the same time.
- If needed, you can delete or remove all your email accounts and then re-create them.
- If you are still receiving duplicate messages, you may need to re-install your email client or contact the manufacturer of your email client to see if there are any corrupt files.

I cannot receive email at my Email Forwarding Destination Address
Note: It takes 12 - 24 hours for all new "Email Forwarding" addresses to fully propagate across the internet.
- Check that your domain is pointing to our nameservers (ns1.misk.com and ns2.misk.com).
- Make sure you have spelled the Destination Address correctly.
- Try adding multiple Destination Addresses.
- You may separate each email address with a comma and a space (e.g.: yourself@hotmail.com, yourself@gmail.com).
