Status chips and what to do

Webhook delivery failed

If the delivery log shows FAILED (or stuck RETRYING) on a WEBHOOK row, check in order:
  1. Reachable from the internet — the endpoint must be a public URL (HTTP or HTTPS). Localhost, staging behind a VPN, and private addresses don’t count.
  2. Responds 2xx within 10 seconds — slow endpoints time out; a timeout counts as a failed attempt and is retried (about 1s, 4s, 9s, 16s backoff).
  3. Signature verified correctly — compute HMAC-SHA256 over the exact raw body and compare to X-BounceBox-Signature; see Webhooks. Rejected signature checks that return 4xx stop retries immediately.
  4. No 4xx responses — a 4xx fails delivery on the spot without retry. Fix the endpoint, then click Redeliver or Reprocess.

Reprocess is unavailable

Reprocessing re-runs extraction from the stored raw email. Once the retention sweep has removed the raw email — 14 days after arrival on Starter, 30 days on Pro and Custom — it’s gone and the inbox shows “Raw email was not retained”. The extracted result and delivery log remain, but the email can’t be re-run. Forward the original email again instead.

Emails marked SKIPPED

Either the sender isn’t on the mailbox’s allowed-senders list, or the mailbox’s Receiving switch is off. Add the exact address (e.g. billing@acmesupplies.com) or the whole domain (e.g. @acmesupplies.com) in the mailbox editor, or turn Receiving back on.

Emails marked QUOTA BLOCKED

Processing is blocked because the workspace hit its monthly email limit, the trial expired, or the subscription is inactive — a hard stop, never an overage charge. The workspace owner was emailed a pointer to Billing. Fix the billing state (upgrade, reactivate, or wait for the monthly reset), then reprocess.

Processing paused with a payment banner

PAYMENT FAILED — processing is paused means the last charge didn’t go through. Open the customer portal from Billing (Open portal), update the payment method, and processing resumes. See Manage your subscription.
