email_forwarding_enable_failed

Email forwarding could not be enabled. HTTP status 502.

Email forwarding could not be turned on with force: true. The API then tried to put back the domain's previous MX records; extensions.mxRecovery.status gives the result.

What to do

If mxRecovery.status is restored, retry after 30 seconds. If it is changed or unconfirmed, do not retry. Contact support with the requestId, because mail delivery may be affected.

What the message says

  • Email forwarding could not be enabled. The previous mail-server records are restored. Try again shortly.

Example

Response 502
{
  "type": "https://developer.hostup.se/errors/email_forwarding_enable_failed",

  "status": 502,

Branch on code, not on title or detail. When you contact support about it, include the requestId. More in Errors and retries.
