Several of our suppliers use Xero.

For some reason, invoices addressed to my wife’s email address first.last1@mac.com simply don’t arrive. They aren’t in her junk folder either.

Any ideas?

Interested....

 

Twelve years later, Apple is still trying to erase mac.com email addresses

 

So is Xero ignoring mac.com emails?

I note also that in google emails the period is ignored....

I have had a similar issue with a couple of my clients.  I worked out that they had clicked on unsubscribe from xero emails by mistake. I had to go back through xero support  to resubscribe to xero emails

That's because gmail is period agnostic.....

 

my email address is firstnamelastname@gmail, but I often get mail addressed to firstname.lastname@gmail that some dope has used to signup on mailing list etc... ( there is no valid firstname.lastname account at gmail ) ..

Gmail may not care but you have to remember if you vary the period in your address or it gets missed by someone recording your address. Other user lists etc don't regard them as being equal.

Are they using Irongate for mail handling? The Uni did that for awhile, whole ranges of email were silently dropped without warning, including anything from Xero.

The case in point is a local plasterer, so probably not. However the same happens with our gardeners and some others.
