Hello, jose42h.
Thank you for reaching out to the Community. Let's perform some troubleshooting steps to resolve your concern. To start, I'd suggest updating QuickBooks to the latest release. By doing so, it keeps the software up-to-date to ensure you have the latest features and fixes.
Then, let's review your settings and filter preferences. These may be blocking your emails from QuickBooks on accident.
To further isolate this issue, we can also send emails using a sample company file to check if it's doing the same thing.
If none of these fixes the problem, I'd recommend reaching out to our QuickBooks Support Team. They can take a closer look at your situation and investigate this further. It'll also allow them to submit a ticket to our engineering team to alert them about the issue if necessary.
Here's how:

Where is the app feature in security located on QB? Using QB 2021.
Hello @BDP3,
Welcome to the Community. Allow me to chime in and share some information about the option that fixed the user's problem in QuickBooks Desktop.
The user from the thread refers to the option that you can find directly from your email settings. Each online email service has security and filter settings that can block third-party apps like QuickBooks from sending emails.
You'll not see the option within your QuickBooks. I recommend accessing your email account via a web browser or app (if they have one) to review the security settings.
The steps to access security settings will be different for each email provider. If you need further assistance with allowing third-party apps connection, you can reach out to your email's customer support.
