'Hide My Email' not working on my MacBook Pro

22 May 2025

I've been using Hide My E-mail for several years. At some point in the last 24 hours I stopped receiving any e-mail from all of my 100+ Hide My E-Mail addresses. There are no e-mails going to my Junk/Spam folders and none in my inbox. I typically receive 50-100 e-mails a day from these addresses.

I can receive e-mails if they are directly sent to my "Forward To" address I have setup in Hide My E-Mail, so I know that account is still working.

Found an answer. I was using a @Gmail account as my “Forward To” account. I switched it to an @icloud.com account associated with my Apple account and I am once again receiving Hide My Email forwards.

Yes, a workaround if you don't have an available @iCloud account. I'm OK with using my @iCloud account because the @Gmail account I was using I specifically setup my @Gmail account to use as the "Forward To" account for Hide My Email. The @iCloud account I'm now using was available and not being used.
