How to Fix Queued Email in Gmail

Is your email marked as “Queued” in your outbox in Gmail?

If so, your email will not be sent to the recipient even though you have an internet connection.

Gmail has security, real-time notifications, and support for multiple accounts.

You can use it to send and receive emails, collaborate with others, video call, and more.

However, some users experience errors in the app like insufficient space and unsent emails.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to fix a queued email in Gmail if it’s not sending in your outbox on Android and iPhone.

Why is my Gmail email queued but not sending?

Your Gmail email is queued but not sending because there is a syncing issue.

Your emails can also be queued due to poor internet connection, restricted data, or a storage issue.

Google Sync synchronizes your emails to an email app on your mobile device to Gmail on the web.

If there’s an error with Google Sync, your emails will fail to send.

To fix queued email in Gmail, you need to unsync and resync Gmail or allow Gmail to use mobile data.
