### Dashboard warns about failed email jobs
From time to time the Discourse dashboard will show a message like this:
> There are 859 email jobs that failed. Check your app.yml and ensure that the
> mail server settings are correct. See the failed jobs in Sidekiq.
In the Sidekiq logs, all the failed job error messages contain
`Recipient address rejected: Domain not found `
.
This is caused by some user's email domain going dark, but Discourse keeps
trying to send them the daily email digest. See the
[
Mass-disable email
digests
](
#mass-disable-email-digests
)
section for instructions how to disable
the automatic email digests for these users.
