Tested with:

Any additional Information

Tell us about your setup.

E.g.

Let’s see your system details, especially your email server setup.

It is open source, not free support.

If you use Starter or CE yup, you get what you pay for. Check the licence Ts & Cs.

Note Rocket makes no attempt to check the delivery of emails (because it is the mail servers job)

It is fire & forget.

The answer will lie in your mail server logs.

Same with other domains, cant register to cloud.rocket.chat, activation email never arrived

If you have registration issues don’t use a junk email address.

Gmail, hotmail etc are not permitted and fail silently.

It must be a proper domain.
