AliExpress Failed Delivery - What now?

I ordered a small item from AliExpress. It appears that an unsuccessful delivery attempt was made today as I received an email saying:
Unsuccessful delivery
Your order 123456789... could not be delivered as planned. This could have happened because of a failed signing, a miscommunication, or for other reasons. Please click below to view more details regarding your order.
Clicking below as requested simply tells me that it was Royal Mail who attempted delivery, though I was home at the time and heard nothing. There is no RM tracking number, and they didn't put a card through the door. So what next, will they attempt to deliver again?
Thanks

We had a postman that never left cards and another that tried to sneak a card through the door but I spotted them approach and he
did not have my item with him.
If you have the number then what does the tracking show?
No idea what's going on currently but I have another item that has not been delivered on the expected date and where the
tracking fails to give a reason or any hint of the expected delivery date.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
Thanks, but there was no number. But nevermind it was delivered this morning preceded by not one but two identical 'Out for delivery' emails (of which I had none yesterday). I guess I'll never know if there actually was an attempted delivery yesterday.forgotmyname said:If you have the number then what does the tracking show?Stompa0 -

It's a scam and nothing to do with your purchasemake the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0 -
Ali clearly has the RM tracking number on your order, if that is who is delivering the product.0
