I have set up my email forwarding to go from my shopify domain (www.ballwrk.com) email: info@ballwrk.com to my gmail account. I feel like when I set the store up last year the email forwarding initially worked. However now I can’t even get test emails to show up in my gmail inbox that I sent via my shopify email. Has forwarding stopped working for gmail? What is the best solution?
Sending an e-mail from the same account that it’s set up to forward to will not work, send the test e-mail from a different e-mail address.
For example, I purchased the domain petersshop.com, I set up an e-mail forward for service@petersshop.com to forward to my e-mail address name@shopify.com. I can not send a test e-mail from name@shopify.com to service@petersshop.com and expect to receive the e-mail back to the same account I sent from. However, if I sent a test from name@gmail.com to service@petersshop.com, it should arrive in my inbox at name@shopify.com.
If you are testing the email forwarding with a different email and you’re not receiving the email then I’d recommend reaching out to our Support to troubleshoot this further.
While we’re not able to provide account-specific support via the Shopify Community at this time, we’d be happy to continue assisting you through live chat, email, or callback. Please visit https://bit.ly/3cJkx8V and log in to your account to create a support request.
Since this is the next step I’ve marked this reply as the solution for the benefit of others who may discover this topic. Thanks!
