Questions
Emails received from the business system are being excluded from the archive.
Answer
When sending emails to Gmail from environments like the following,
those emails may be excluded from the archive:
・ The domain used in the From address is the same as the one used in Gmail (including subdomains).
・ The domain used in the Envelope From is the same as the one used in Gmail (including subdomains).
・ The sending IP address of the business system is included in the domain's SPF record or registered in Gmail's receiving gateway settings.
This occurs because Gmail incorrectly recognizes these emails as internally received emails.
If this issue occurs, please add specific archive settings for the business system.

If you are not receiving emails, please check that they are not being identified as spam by adding them to "Receiving Gateway" or "Whitelist."
