Verifying Your Setup
To verify that your Hostinger email is successfully linked with your Gmail, send a test email to your Hostinger email address and check if it appears in your Gmail inbox. Note that there might be a delay initially as Gmail fetches emails at longer intervals. This interval will decrease as you receive more emails.
Common Issue: Delay in Receiving Emails
If you notice a delay in receiving emails from Hostinger to your Gmail, it’s due to Gmail’s design to check for new emails at longer intervals to prevent server strain. As you receive more emails, Gmail will check more frequently, reducing the delay.
