Confirm forwarding

Gmail and some providers require confirmation before forwarding activates.
  1. Check All Tickets in Typewise for a confirmation email
  2. Click the confirmation link
  3. Return to your email provider and verify forwarding is active

Verify your forwarding address

Your Typewise forwarding address is at: Behaviour > Channels > Email > Settings > Receiving emails Copy this exactly. One wrong character breaks forwarding.

Typewise learns your traffic patterns. Low-volume inboxes have longer detection windows. If you legitimately have quiet periods (weekends, holidays), the alert clears automatically when activity resumes.
