Hi prolifix ,
AFAIK, power bi share feature is pro feature, please check these external users to confirm they have pro license. (both send and receiver)
Power BI service features by license type
Per-user license type comparison
Here is a list of features supported by per-user license type.
| Free | Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Connect to 70+ data sources | ||
| Publish to Web | ||
| Export to PowerPoint, Excel, CSV | ||
| Enterprise distribution | ||
| Apps | ||
| Email subscriptions | ||
| Embed APIs and controls | ||
| Collaboration | ||
| Peer-to-peer sharing | ||
| App workspaces | ||
| Analyze in Excel, analyze in Power BI Desktop |
In addition, you can also check their email policy and rules to confirm if they blocked power bi notification messages.

Hi Xiaoxin,
Yes, both accounts have the pro license activated. I think the email is fine on their side. Even if they block the email shouldn't I still see the user added to my access tab?

HI prolifix ,
In fact, I can share with external user account (he has added to 'permission menage' panel) and receive the access email.
Since I can't reproduce this issue, I'd like to suggest you open a support ticket to get further support from power bi team. (e.g. trace request, check backend operations of power bi service...)
submit a support ticket
