      Contact Verification

      Verification Required

      Unverified contacts will not receive notifications. If a contact is not receiving alerts, reports, or other messages, check their verification status first.

      To check if on the bounce list:

      2. Entries with a 🚫 symbol are in the bounce list

       

      To remove from the bounce list: 

      1. Go to Admin → Organisation Management → Organisation Messages
      2. Select the relevant Address Book entry
      3. Select Check Mail Deliverability
      4. Select Remove from Bounce List

       

      Troubleshooting

      I cannot see the Address Book

      Your account may not have the required permissions. See Required Permissions above, or contact Digital Matter Support.
       

      A contact is not receiving notifications

      1. Check the contact has been added as a recipient for the relevant alert, report, or schedule.
      2. Check their email address or mobile number is verified.

      For further troubleshooting, see Why Aren't I Receiving my Email/SMS Alerts or Reports?

       

      An email or mobile number is on the bounce list

      This occurs after repeated delivery failures. While on the bounce list, Telematics Guru will not attempt to send to that address. See Bounce List above, or Contact Digital Matter Support to have the address removed.
