If your Google Business Mail or Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) is not receiving messages or emails, there could be several reasons. Here are some basic steps to check and resolve the issue.

1. Check Email Receiving Settings

Check if there are any email filters that might be blocking incoming emails.
Check the Spam and Trash folders to see if emails are being sent there.

2. Check MX Records Settings

MX Records settings are crucial for receiving emails. Verify that MX Records are configured correctly using the Google Admin Console.
You can use online tools like MX Toolbox to test your domain’s MX Records settings.

3. Check Security Settings

Ensure that there are no email filters blocking incoming messages.
Check the Spam and Trash folders to see if emails are being sent there.

4. Check Mailbox Quota

Check if your email account’s storage quota is full. If it is, you may need to delete old emails or increase your storage capacity.

5. Check with Your Internet Service Provider

Sometimes issues may arise from blocks imposed by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). You may need to contact them to check if there is a block on connections to Google.

6. Check Known Issues on Google Workspace Status Dashboard

Google has a status page (Google Workspace Status Dashboard) that shows the current status of Google’s services. Check if there are any issues with Google’s services.
