Where Are My TalkTalk Emails?
Unfortunately, there are a few reasons why you might not be receiving TalkTalk emails. When you know that someone is trying to correspond and you can’t find the emails, it can be frustrating. Let’s explore what you can do and what is simply out of your hands.
First, whenever you can’t find an important email always check your spam folder. Sometimes new email addresses will be highlighted as spam. Always check the spam folder when experiencing missing or delayed correspondence.
Next, check TalkTalk’s website for known outages. When the servers are down webmail will not be functioning properly. Some outages might last up to 48 hours. And there isn’t anything that you can do. You will just have to wait for the technicians to fix the outage problem.
What should you do if the messages are not in your spam folder and the internet is working? Let’s address another key issue with TalkTalk webmail.
Why Can I send TalkTalk Emails but Not Receive Them?
Are you sending emails to your family members but not receiving any emails back? Maybe you are receiving them but they are disappearing? This might have to do with how you are using webmail. Are you on a computer browser or a mobile browser?
TalkTalk email software functions best with mobile email apps that are using the IMAP setting. The POP3 setting can be deleting messages and cause receiving errors. Therefore, it’s best to switch to a personal (IMAP) email account.
Additionally, you need to check your IMAP incoming and outgoing server settings. You might need to change the mail server names to ensure that the incoming server is prefixed by mail and the outgoing server is prefixed by SMTP.
