FAQs & Answers
- How can I check if an email went to my spam folder? To check if an email is in your spam folder, open your email client and navigate to the Spam or Junk folder. Review the messages there, and if you find the email, mark it as 'Not Spam' to ensure future emails from that sender go directly to your inbox.
- What is a read receipt and how does it work? A read receipt is a confirmation that the recipient has opened your email. It is requested by the sender through their email client and the recipient must approve sending the receipt for the sender to be notified.
- How can I follow up if I haven’t received an email confirmation? If you haven’t received a confirmation, sending a polite follow-up email to the sender asking for confirmation is an effective way to ensure your message was received and read.
