When customers are sending emails to the info@medinfo.com they are receiving this error that email cannot be processed. This email is use to collect replies and should not be used directly. Even though the email does send properly.  Can anyone help please see my settings below.

alias_domain medinfo.com

mail.catchall.domain  medinfo.com

Alias Domain   medinfo.com

If you are using an external mail provider, you will need to define the "catchall" and "bounce" email addresses with your mail provider.

Here's a good link that explains the configuration steps in detail: 

https://www.odoo.com/documentation/user/12.0/discuss/email_servers.html 

Hope this helps.

If you are using an external SMTP service, you will need to create the email id "info@medinfo.com" in the email service provider's system so that the provider knows where the return emails are to be sent. Once the return emails reach Odoo, they will get directed to the correct Odoo user.

Paresh Wagh

Also, make sure that the "Incoming Mail Server" is configured correctly in Odoo.

sorry to bother you much. I have configure incoming/outgoing properly but now the problem is I cannot fetch their communication.

Paresh Wagh

Did you create the "info@medinfo.com" email id in your email provider's system ?

Hunain
Author

yes

Paresh Wagh

Here's a brief summary of everything that needs to be in place for it to work:

1. mail.bounce.alias and mail.catchall.alias in System Parameters (Odoo)

2. Alias Domain (Odoo) : Settings > General Settings > External Email Servers

3. Outgoing and Incoming Email Server configurations (Odoo)

4. Create info@medinfo.com in your Email provider's system

If it still doesn't work, check whether the scheduled jobs for processing the outgoing and incoming mails have run. By default the outgoing emails are set to be processed very hour whereas the incoming default is 5 mins. You can also run these manually to test the set up.

Also check whether you get a success message when you click on "Test Connection" when you set up the Outgoing and Incoming Email Servers in Odoo.

Paresh Wagh

Do you get a success message when you click on "Test Connection" in the Outgoing and Incoming Email Server configuration screens ?

yes i have send you the video please check you inbox.

Paresh Wagh

Ok. Will take a look at it and post back.

Paresh Wagh

I think I found the missing piece. In your "Incoming Mail Server" configuration screen, there is a "Create a New Record" field in the "Actions to Perform on Incoming Mails" section. You need to select "Email Thread" in this field. That should fix the issue because everything else looked okay.

Still not solved. I think the problem is with info@mednfo G suit configuration. When i use simple gmail id (hunainfast@gmail.com) everything works perfect.

You may want to use the "smtp-relay" option instead of "smtp" if you are using G Suite. Also, try "imap" for the incoming server instead of "pop3".

smtp-relay.gmail.com ?

You will find this useful. It explains how to use the SMTP Relay server in G Suite instead of the regular SMTP server.

The following link provides similar instructions for IMAP.

Thank you the problem is resolved. I really appreciate that.

Paresh Wagh

Use SMTP Relay for outgoing and IMAP for incoming. SMTP Relay is also more secure since you can restrict access to the IP address of the Odoo server so that it only accepts email sending requests from Odoo.

Paresh Wagh

Great. What was the missing link ?

Hunain

I made catchall@medinfo.com, bounce@medinfo.com in my mail server. then do these setting in system parameters.

mail.bounce.alias -> bounce

mail.catchall.alias -> catchall

mail.catchall.domain-> medinfo.com

Hi Paresh

Looking for Bounced messages configuration, there are several questions redirecting here, but the answer here is not very clear for the specific Bounce configuration, what do you think about clarify the Bounce mail configuration in the following forum:

https://www.odoo.com/forum/help-1/clarifying-bounce-messages-configuration-in-odoo-188158

Thank you

Paresh Wagh

Hi Ricardo:

 

I went through the post but am not clear about what information you are looking for. Are you looking for information about how to configure the email functionality or is there a specific issue you are facing that you are trying to resolve?

 

For starters, I have found the following portion in the Odoo documentation to be a good point of reference:

https://www.odoo.com/documentation/14.0/applications/productivity/discuss/advanced/email_servers.html#how-to-use-my-mail-server-to-send-and-receive-emails-in-odoo

 

Thanks and regards,

Paresh
