Google Workspace and Gmail problems, sorted

Mail stopped arriving after the Google Domains move to Squarespace, Gmail rejecting messages, or an admin account nobody can get into. We get it working again.

Why it happens

When Squarespace took over Google Domains, many businesses lost easy access to the DNS behind their Workspace email, and some ended up with missing or broken MX records. Others are now hitting Gmail's stricter rules for senders, which since November 2025 means outright rejections rather than warnings.

We check the domain, the DNS, the Workspace admin console and every service that sends as you, then put the records right and confirm mail flows both ways.

What we fix

  • Email stopped after the domain moved to Squarespace

    We find where the DNS now lives, restore the MX, SPF and DKIM records and verify the domain in Workspace again.

  • Gmail rejecting or junking your messages

    We set up SPF, DKIM and DMARC to Google's sender rules and test delivery to Gmail and Outlook.

  • Locked out of the Workspace admin account

    We work through Google's admin recovery with you, using domain verification where needed.

  • Moving from Workspace to Microsoft 365, or the other way

    We plan and run the move so nobody loses mail, contacts or calendars, and cut over out of hours.

Questions people ask

If yours isn't here, ask it on the call.

Do I have to move my domain away from Squarespace?

No. Your domain can stay where it is. We just need access to its DNS settings to put the right records back.

How long until email works again?

Once the records are fixed, most mail flows within an hour or two. DNS changes can take longer to reach everyone, and we check until it's settled.

Can you recover email that bounced while it was broken?

Bounced mail went back to the sender, so it can't be recovered on your side. We can help you tell customers to resend.
