Have you guys run into this issue lately when add a new forwarding email address in Gmail?

@robot.zapier.com is not a valid email address.

The problem is solved itself, my guess is that the mailbox was too new hence google can’t sent verification emails to the new address.]

 

Thank you for your time!

Hi @chen 

Good question.

Can you post a screenshot to confirm where in what app you are receiving this error message?

A better alternative to Parser by Zapier is Mailparser: https://zapier.com/apps/mailparser/integrations

Hi @chen , 

 

Im assuming you are getting the full email address from the parser? i.e.: whatevercharachterhere@robot.zapier.com ?

Hi @chen I'm having this same issue, how long did it take for this to correct itself for you?

@chen @Pigtown55, I’m having the same issue with a parser mailbox that was created a few weeks ago. How did you end up resolving this issue?

@seanpmgallagher I ended up using my outlook email with no issues.
