A member or client swears they never got your email, an invoice, a booking confirmation, a Member Portal invite, and the log in OfficeRnD Flex clearly says "Delivered." Both things can be true at once. "Delivered" means the message reached the recipient's mail server, not that it reached their inbox, and the gap between those two is where spam filters, quarantine rules, and provider blocks do their work.
This article walks you through what "Delivered" actually confirms, the recipient-side causes to rule out first, and how to handle suppressions and provider blocks so the next email gets through.
In this article:
Learn what the "Delivered" status means in OfficeRnD email logs.
Rule out spam, quarantine, and inbox rules.
Check suppression and unsubscribe status.
Clear provider- or domain-level blocks.
Prevent repeat delivery issues.
What does the "Delivered" status mean?
You can check all email activity in your organization by going to
Operations > Email Activity.
When OfficeRnD marks an email as "Delivered", it confirms that the message reached the recipient's mail server. It does not guarantee that the email is visible in the inbox. Local filtering, quarantines, or rules may still redirect it.
Common reasons system emails from OfficeRnD are not received
Start with these likely causes before you investigate less common ones.
Spam or junk folder: The email might have been filtered into the recipient's Spam or Junk folder. Recipients should check these folders and mark the email as "Not Spam" if found.
Quarantine or filtering: Some email systems or IT security measures quarantine emails that meet certain criteria before they reach the inbox. Recipients should check with their IT or security team or email provider to review logs and release quarantined emails if necessary.
Inbox rules: Recipients may have rules that move certain emails to another folder. Ask the recipients to review and adjust their rules.
Incorrect address: Verify that the recipient's email address entered in OfficeRnD is correct. Hidden typos or formatting issues can prevent delivery. Copying and pasting the confirmed email address can help eliminate such errors.
Provider blocking: Some emails may fail due to a block by the recipient's email provider or domain block settings. Removing OfficeRnD from blocked senders and safelisting the domain can prevent such conflicts. Ask the recipient to safelist the OfficeRnD domain and remove OfficeRnD from blocked senders.
Resolve suppression and unsubscribe issues
If you suspect a suppression might be the reason why the recipient doesn't receive your emails, follow these steps:
Suppression list: When a recipient unsubscribes from OfficeRnD emails, their email address is added to a suppression list. A suppression status results in delivery failures rather than "Delivered" logs. To resolve this, remove the suppression so the recipient receives your emails.
CC notifications: If a recipient who is CC'd on OfficeRnD notifications isn't receiving them, ensure their address is not suppressed. If it is, remove the suppression.
Specific scenarios
Use these targeted steps for common cases you may encounter.
Member Portal invitation emails not received: If the log shows Delivered but nothing arrives, the cause is recipient-side: spam filters, quarantine, or mailbox rules. Ask the recipient to check their spam folder or have IT review. If the member was never invited in the first place, invite the member to the Member Portal and the Members app →
Some team members receive invitations while others do not: This often indicates a block or restriction at the recipient's email level. Review and remove any block policies on the recipient's domain or email address.
Prevent future delivery issues
The practices below help reduce repeated email delivery issues:
Safelist the OfficeRnD domain at the recipient's email provider level.
Regularly check suppression lists and promptly address unsubscribed user concerns.
Educate users to monitor their inbox settings, including spam folders and quarantine areas.
