Email Delivery Errors

If there’s a typo or issue with a client’s email address when sending a bank statement request, CashDeck will notify you via email.


These notifications identify the affected client and include a description of the error.

Where to Check Email Delivery Status

You can also check the delivery status by opening your client’s request in CashDeck.

Common Email Delivery Errors

Here’s a list of potential delivery issues and how to respond:

Hard Bounce

Meaning: The email couldn’t be delivered — often due to an invalid address (e.g., unknown user, mailbox not found).
Action:

  • Check for typos in the email address.

  • Confirm the correct address with your client.

Transient Error

Meaning: Temporary delivery failure (e.g., network issues or server delays).
Action:

  • Try sending the email again after some time.

Auto Responder

Meaning: The recipient has an automatic response enabled (e.g., out-of-office or vacation reply).
Action:

  • No immediate action needed.

  • The client will likely respond once they return.

Soft Bounce

Meaning: Temporary failure due to mailbox issues (e.g., full inbox, disabled account, quota exceeded).
Action:

  • Contact your client to resolve the issue.

  • Consider requesting an alternative email address.

ISP Block

Meaning: The message was blocked by the email provider or flagged as spam due to content or blacklist issues.
Action:

  • Try resending the request using a different email address.

  • Enable SMS delivery as an alternative.

Spam Notification

Meaning: The email was delivered but marked as spam, bulk mail, or rejected by the recipient’s server.
Action:

  • Resend the request with SMS delivery enabled.

Resending a request

To resend a request:

  1. Click the Resend button from the request screen.

  2. Before clicking Send, you can update the email address or add a mobile number to enable SMS delivery.

🔒 Note: Request options such as the number of days to sync cannot be changed after the request is created.
