Not recieving the passkey (re-sent. Fixed)
Hello,
I've requested two keys to seperate GMails, but none of them were send to me.
This is now 3 to 4 hours ago.

Not reciving passkey
Hi.
I have applied for a passkey twice but have never received an e-mail.
Have checked spam folder.

Re: Not reciving passkey
I just tested on this link for getting a passkey - https://apps.foldingathome.org/getpasskey - and have received one. It comes from a folding account on gmail. Also check to see if an email ended in your spam folder.

Re: Not reciving passkey
I have just done what Joe_H suggested. It is the same link I used before.
I tried it again and it didn't work for my email address. The email didn't arrive in my spam folder or my main email address.

Re: Not receiving passkey
I can't get a passkey either. I have tried 2 different domains, including gmail, and nothing is received in spam or inbox. Joe_H, what domain did you successfully get a passkey email on? I am requesting a new passkey, so maybe the problem is new emails aren't going out, but existing passkeys are?

Re: Not reciving passkey
My initial test was using a new username and a variant of my usual .edu email address at the university I work at. That email went through fine and gave me a totally new passkey.
I just tested using another new username and my Gmail account for email, that did not go through. I checked both the Inbox and the spam folder. I wonder if an overaggressive filter on Gmail is outright blocking the email from even going through.

Re: Not receiving passkey
Gmail, Yahoo, and Protonmail are all not working currently. The headers on the email that you did receive might shed light on this issue. This looks like a fairly serious problem if all 3 of those can't receive the passkey.

Re: Not reciving passkey
I had a chance to look at the email header, about the only thing I recognized as pertinent was a spam probability rating of 12%. THat would be from the filter used by the Exchange server here.

Re: Not reciving passkey
I have tried it out now on my old university (.ac.uk) email address. Didn't work.
I've tried gmail, hotmail(outlook) and .ac.uk emails so far. No success.

Re: Not reciving passkey
I am in the same situation. Asked for passkey twice for a gmail account. Never received anything, not even in spam.

Re: Not receiving passkey
How does this problem get reported or escalated to someone who can fix it?
