Troubleshooting Missing Customer Emails in Zendesk

Learn why customer emails might not show up in Zendesk and how to troubleshoot common issues with email settings and configurations.

Why are customer emails not showing up in my Zendesk account?

Customer emails might not appear in your Zendesk account due to several reasons. If you've recently set up your email, it could be a configuration issue. Ensure your support addresses are correctly listed and verified in your email settings.

If the issue started suddenly, check your forwarding configuration, suspended tickets view, and ensure your triggers are set correctly. Also, verify that emails aren't being sent to an alias, as Zendesk doesn't support email aliases. For more detailed troubleshooting steps, visit theoriginal Zendesk help article.
