Problem with GMAIL

Hello, I've been using GMAIL to send and receive all my emails, and for a few days now, I can hardly receive any emails, especially from my father, and this isn't the first time it's happened.

I've looked online, including videos, to see if my settings are wrong, but I don't see why; that said, I have one email address to log into GMAIL and another, my main address. My father sent me an email to my login address, and I received it. I checked if it's a problem with forwarding or filters; I haven't set any up, and I have plenty of storage space. I tried to send an email, and it told me I was trying to send an email to another address, but that's not true. I also tried using another browser, Firefox, when I only use CHROME, which is the recommended browser for Gmail. I sent another email, and it did the same thing. I feel like there's a conflict between my two addresses; I don't understand. Thank you for your help.

    Hello,

    I noticed the same thing... Gmail is a funny place, they keep creating new rules "for your security"...!!!

    It's displayed somewhere... But in fact, we ignore it and we don't really know what to do to make it work...

    Personally, I haven't received any Gmail since June 19... I must also say that I set another address as Primary since the troubles I've had with them regarding two-factor authentication and an Outlook 2007 ("not secure enough") as an email client... You might have some tips on the same kind of thing...

    You need to clearly distinguish between sent emails and received emails and not mix them up... also those received by a messaging software and the consultations on the Gmail webmail site..??

    Also, see the exact text of the error message..??

    Hello, my email address is with bbox, I wanted to log into my Bouygues account, I reset my password because the one I entered was incorrect, and I was able to access all my emails that did not transfer to Gmail, I don't know why.

    Error message received

    Message not delivered

    You are sending this message from a different address or alias using the "Send emails as" feature. The settings for this other account are not configured correctly or are no longer up to date. Please check them and try again. LEARN MORE Server response:

    I don't understand the connection between your @bbox emails, the password, and Gmail..?

    If it's about "Undelivered Message", it would be for the outgoing SMTP messages..

    Do you handle your emails through a software (Outlook or Thunderbird..?? or something else)..?? Or instead on the Bouygues or Gmail Webmail site..?? How do you do it and what version is the software, if any?

    I read at the beginning that you were using CHROME, so it would be Webmail..? on the Gmail site..??

    -- Did you provide a backup email address on Gmail..?

    Hello, I only use Bouygues messaging and Gmail, my emails first arrive on Bouygues and are forwarded to Gmail; I use CHROME, yes I have added a backup email address in Gmail

    The password is for Bouygues, I had to recreate it, that's all

    I will only use Bouygues messaging for now

    Thank you
