š§ Overview
If your message appears as āSentā in Feedback Genius but doesn't show up in Amazon Seller Central, itās likely due to one of the following:
A corrupted or oversized attachment, especially a PDF
An unauthorized āSending Emailā address that isn't approved in Seller Central
This article walks you through how to identify and fix both issues.
š Part 1: Fixing Attachment Issues
ā ļø Problem
Amazon may block messages with corrupted attachmentsāeven if Feedback Genius displays them as āSent.ā This happens silently, meaning there are no visible errors unless you investigate manually.
š How to Confirm
Send a test message to yourself:
If the message fails to deliver, or
You cannot open/download the attachment
Then the file is likely corrupt or incompatible.
š How to Fix
Navigate to Review and Edit Message in Feedback Genius.
Scroll to the Attachments section (under the text editor).
Click the trash can icon to remove the attachment.
Click Save & Send Test or Save & Complete.
Re-upload the attachment (ideally an optimized version).
Monitor the message in your Sent Messages tab in Seller Central.

š§ Part 2: Verifying Your āApproved Sending Emailā Address
ā ļø Problem
If your Sending Email in Feedback Genius does not match an Amazon-approved Alternate Address, Amazon may prevent your message from appearingāeven if itās technically delivered.
š Important Notes
Each Amazon marketplace (e.g., US, UK, CA) may have its own list of approved Alternate Addresses.
The āSending Emailā is not shown to buyersāAmazon masks it with your store name and a cryptic email (e.g.,
asdfghjklmqwertyuip@marketplace.amazon.com
).
š How to Fix
Log in to Seller Central, go to the Messages tab.
From the Links section on the right, click Messaging Permissions.
Verify or add your āSending Emailā under Alternate Addresses for each marketplace.
Please refer to these detailed instructions!
š How to Update in Feedback Genius
Click on Custom Messages in the top-left hamburger menu.
Find the relevant message and click the pencil icon in the āSending Emailā column.
Choose or enter an approved email address.
A popup will appearāreview it and click Save to apply changes.
