2. Send a test email: You can send a test email to the email address to determine if the address is still valid.

3. Check the spam folder: You can check your recipient’s spam folder to see if the email has been blocked and marked as spam.

4. Contact the recipient: You can contact the recipient through other means such as phone or social media to ask if they received your email.

If your email has been blocked by the recipient, you can avoid this by modifying the email content and sending method.

Why am I still receiving emails from blocked senders on Gmail?

One reason you may still receive emails from people you have blocked on Gmail is that the sender is using a different email address. Another reason is that the sender is using a proxy server to send emails which the system is unable to identify.
