My DocuSign demo account is not sending email notifications to signers for envelopes created. Despite everything worked fine earlier. There are no junk file issues, and i have configured all notification preferences according to solutions / documentation found. 

Are there any recent updates or changes to DocuSign Demo account settings that could effect Email notifications?
Or Anything that i might have missed to set up notifications.

Any Suggestions or solutions Would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Hello ​@Meghana,

Thanks for reaching out, and welcome to the Docusign Community!

There haven’t been any known recent changes to demo account that should stop email notifications. To help narrow this down, could you confirm if all recipients are affected or just specific ones?

If possible, please also share a sample Envelope ID so we can check the details and investigate further.

Looking forward to your response.

 

Best Regards,

Hi ​@Jenny.Martin ,

Thank you for your response.

For all recipients I am not receiving any emails or updates regarding the documents.
Here is the Envelope ID for your reference: *information removed due to PII*

Please let me know if you need any additional details required.

Thank you.

Hello ​@Meghana,

Thank you for providing the envelope ID. After checking, this envelope has not yet been opened or viewed by the initial recipient. As the sender, the first notification you will receive is when a recipient actually opens the envelope. Since no action has been taken yet, there are no email notifications generated at this stage.

Were you expecting a different type of notification, or do you have other envelopes that were completed but you did not receive any updates for those?

Hi ​@Jenny.Martin 

I wanted to clarify that the recipients who are supposed to review or sign the documents are not receiving any notifications. As a result, there are no update emails being generated on the state of the document either.

Could you please investigate why neither the sender nor the recipients are receiving any notifications for these envelopes?

Thank you.

I am using a trial account, and the recipient addresses aren’t receiving emails. I have tried my work account and gmail, but don’t see anything. Is there something that needs to be configured? envelope id (now signed during testing) is *information removed due to PII*

I have the same problem. My developer account NEVER delivers emails anymore. Not even to the first signer. Routing is 100% correct. Emails are not in spam, anywhere. I tried multiple emails providers, nothing is delivered. It’s been broken for about a month
