Hi There, I have setup a Discourse environment per the standard Docker container and added the mail-receiver container. When I look at https://mxtoolbox.com/ my domain community.mountainbikemuseum.net also points to the right IP address of my server. On the mail-receiver container no information …

step 1) can you log into the mailbox and confirm that the mail there ? step 2) is your pop3 settings saved in admin > settings [image] step 3) the email address in enter in the category > settings > email section

I think the mail-receiver needs manual polling rather than pop3: [image] Configure direct-delivery incoming email for self-hosted sites with Mail-Receiver Enable the “manual polling” setting, rather than “pop3 polling”

Yes. I can confirm that I have enabled manual polling via the admin interface. I should not have to do a rebuild after that right? Anyway, the result (or rather lack thereof) is the same unfortunately.

Apart from checking over your DNS MX records manually (and double checking the guide), I’m not sure. I’ve only set the mail-receiver up a handful of times, and it’s been pretty plain-sailing every time (not to rub it in). When I check the mx:community.mountainbikemuseum.net mx record it says its not…

I just set this up myself and mine is working. I activated 2 settings in settings > email manual polling enabled email in check those 2

Je pense que le récepteur de courrier a besoin d’un sondage manuel plutôt que du POP3 :
