I have set up a new user and the user in questions is nto receiving the invite email.

Hi @jaygrove

There are a few things to check in this article: New user not receiving welcome email

If you still have issues, the author explains what information to send to them.

Hope this helps.

Hi Phil

I have set up four users already, three using the godaddy email that I have created for them as new users for a new company. Now the fifth user - also on the same godaddy email domain - has been setup, but no invite email recieved.

FYI: so far I have -

Deleted and recreated the user account in hubspot

Checked deleted and spam folders in the outlook.com client

Added the five hubspot email addresses as recommended into the allowlist

I have not been able to add the IP as I don’t see a way to get to that level from within the outlook.com client.

Given that for three other users set up this way (same hubspot, same email domain) all has been fine, I am finding it hard to see what might be different in this case.

Any Ideas?

Super response and everything now working as we wanted. Perfect Solution.

Thanks for your assistance.

PS: How do I mark this as a solution?

We have the same problem. I suspect the reason is that we sent an invite from HubSpot before we created the invitee’s email account during onboarding → the invite must have hard-bounced as for non-existent mailbox.

I hope that HubSpot will re-send the invite after some back-off period but I couldn’t find anything that would say how long that could take.

Hi @dc352,

Are you still experiencing issues?

Could you follow the steps in this post?

Thanks!

Hi @JessicaH

I looked at the steps you mention but they are more towards marketing emailing.

I managed to resolve the problem by adding the email address in question to my own account - or trying to.

1. I removed the new user

2. I tried to add that email address as my alias. That complained that the user still existed (which was not the case but it seems that changes, .e.g., removing an integration with Outlook takes some time, not far off 30 minutes to propagate)

3. I re-created the user - still no email

4. I tried to log in with the new email address and send my self a password reminder. The reminder was sent - hooray.

A bit more clarity about, e.g., a note that the email address is blocklisted due to a hard-bounce, would be great.

In the end - the password reminder seemed to be the way to go, but it needs confirmation.

Thank you! I signed back in just to tell you thanks! clicked on forgot password, then entered the new user’s email. That worked!!

Here is another thread with the same concern - https://community.hubspot.com/t5/CRM/New-User-Invitation-email-failed-to-be-received/m-p/49947#M5181

I am having the same issue . Account is xxx. I am creating a user xxx, no matter what I add he doesnt get the welcome invite . I added the accresses to allowlist , checked the spam, deleted and re-created the user.

Please help.

Hello, @MBakshi looks like the email was bounced on our end, could you please try to resend the email again and let us know how it works?

Thank you,

Pam

Please advise
Thanks

Just go to the login screen, and click forgot Password, then enter the new user’s email. An email will be sent to the new user to change/update the PW.

YES, I think this is a @hubspot glitch.

@hubspot I’d just like to raise that we have had this invite issue on our account too this week

Only one particular new user for some strange reason? Despite being able to setup and invite other collegues with the same email domain to hubspot fine after?

Thanks @chadmay for the above - we were able to use this approach to get the user logged in

Dear community,
I have tried all above steps recommended to have a new member of our team receive her welcome email but nothing seems to work. Interestingly, she doesn’t actually receive the welcome email from 2 different Hubspot accounts that she needs to use.
Could anyone pls assist in finding a solution? Many thanks!!

Hello, @FVeldman I would like to share this Community post here with important steps.

Thank you,

Pam

Hi @PamCotton, thanks for your response. Did you receive my direct message? Many thanks for your support!!

Hello @FVeldman thank you for the information provided, looks like that email bounced because the user does not exist. I was able to unbounce, could you please resend the email invitation and confirm if the user receives it? Thank you!
