### I have an ENS/DID, but I cannot find it on Mail3.

There are 3 situations that your DID cannot be resolved:

1.  The current address needs to **hold the DID**, not just resolve to its own address.
    
2.  DID with **emoji**;
    
3.  Your 0x address has **more than 10 DID**. If you have more than 10 DID, first 10 will be displayed;
    
4.  We're using **Alchemy**, there is a cache issue from Alchemy, please report it in 🔎｜bug-issue with your 0x address on [**Discord**](https://discord.gg/J3ac6YcXUU).
