Gmail account stopped receiving email messages

If your Gmail account has stopped receiving email messages, first check your spam folder to see if the emails are being filtered there. Ensure your storage quota isn't full, as this can prevent new messages from being received. Review your filters and forwarding settings to confirm they're not incorrectly directing emails away from your inbox. Additionally, check your internet connection and try logging out and back into your account. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider looking for any service outage information that might be affecting Gmail.

If you've accidentally sent an email containing sensitive information, consider taking the following steps: 1. If you can, immediately send a follow-up email to the recipient asking them to delete the original email without opening or sharing it. 2. Review your sent items to track the email and confirm its content. 3. Monitor your accounts for any suspicious activity related to the sensitive information shared. 4. Consider changing your passwords and enabling two-factor authentication where possible for added security.
