What to do if a user isn't receiving the notification emails
Email can be tricky, and sometimes you will find that a user is not receiving the notification and invitation emails that are being sent from Filecamp. Messages may not arrive for many reasons: email server quarantines, caught in a spam filter, accidentally deleted, etc.
For invitations and sharing messages, you can try to send the links to them via your default email client instead.
