From addresses allow you to customize the sender displayed to your email recipients. By default, you can send messages from your own email address. You can also send messages on behalf of other senders in your organization or from a marketing or sales alias.
Essentials to Get Started
- You must be an admin user to add or edit from addresses and send verification emails
- Your From Addresses must be valid emails (you'll need to access a verification email sent to your from address's inbox)
- Make sure you've set up the following:
- Required Email From Setup
- Envelope From Domains, the digital envelopes used to route and deliver your messages
- Optional: Personalized From Addresses to dynamically use your sales owner's contact information in your outbound messages
Important: Every domain you send from must be configured with SPF and DKIM, or your messages may not be delivered. See Email From Setup for more information on the required technical setup.
