I am unable to receive emails but I can send them. My account tools do not list servers.

    Hi, I'm John! I will help you with this.

    To help narrow down the issue:

    1. Are you using Outlook web, Outlook New or Classic for Windows/Mac, or the Outlook mobile app?
    2. Is this happening on one device or on all your devices?
    3. Have you checked if Focused Inbox is turned on and if your emails might be going to the Other tab instead of the main Inbox?

    In the meantime, I recommend checking out this Microsoft support article:


    Check any Outlook rules:

    • In https://outlook.live.com/mail go to Settings > View all Outlook settings > Mail > Rules and Mail > Forwarding to make sure no one has set up rules to forward or delete your messages.

    If the issue persists, please provide more details by answering my questions.
