Recipients Not Receiving Sent Emails

Hi: Here's my problem: For about a week now, recipients are not receiving my sent emails. These are all simple single emails - no bulk, forwards, etc. I tried to send an email to another of my addresses through Thunderbird and I did not receive it.

The odd thing is that all sent emails do show up in my "Sent" folder. So my emails display and are saved as being sent, but no one is actually receiving them. Any ideas? Thanks.

I'd first check with the recipients and have them check their spam folder.

Do you get any error messages in response?

It sometimes happens that an email provider gets blocked due to too many spam messages have been sent via that provider. Check with your email provider if they do have such an issue.

Once the message is in your Sent folder, it has been sent, and from that point on, it's not in your hands (or Thunderbird) anymore whether the message gets to the intended recipients.
