Email Communication Legalities

Summary

In California, employers must maintain a safe workplace under the OSHA Act. If your email fails, notify your employer immediately. No-call, no-show policies are legal but should be clearly communicated by the employer. If you experience email delivery issues, check your sent mail, contact your IT department, and document all attempts to notify your employer. Consult your employee handbook for alternative communication methods. The responsibility for email delivery can be tricky to determine, so consider seeking advice from a local employment attorney.

It said recipient server did not accept a request to connect is that on me or them
It seems like there was a technical issue with the email server. However, the responsibility can be tricky to determine. Can you confirm if this was your employer's server or your own?
My messages went through I did not until * Days later did I get message saying that the recipient server did not accept the request connect so as far as I knew that I sent him the message but I got the message three days later that it did not connect
It appears there was a technical issue with the server. In such cases, it's generally:
- The sender's responsibility to ensure the message was delivered.
- The receiver's responsibility to maintain a functioning server.
