Set up how your emails are sent

3 min read Updated Jul 31, 2026

Every website you build can send emails to your visitors and customers - booking and order confirmations, contact-form replies, reminders, and newsletters. This guide shows how to control who those emails come from and how they're delivered.

Where to find it

Open your project and go to Settings → Email sending. Everything below is set there, and your choice applies to all of that project's emails.

Your name and reply-to

At the top, set:

  • From name - the name recipients see (for example, Acme Studio).
  • Reply-to - where replies should go, if different from the sending address.

These apply no matter which sending method you choose.

Choose a sending method

We send your emails for you from a shared, verified address. There's nothing to set up and deliverability is excellent. Your From name and reply-to still apply, so replies reach you.

Pick this if you just want things to work.

2. Your own domain (best for your brand)

Send from your own domain (for example, [protected]), cryptographically signed by us so inboxes trust it. You add a few DNS records once:

  1. Choose Your own domain and enter the domain.
  2. Click Add & get DNS records.
  3. Add the records shown at your domain registrar (where you bought the domain).
  4. Come back and click Check until the status shows Verified.
  5. Select the verified domain as your sender.

You get the best of both worlds: your brand on the "From" address and great deliverability.

3. Your own SMTP server

Already have a mail provider (SendGrid, Mailgun, Google Workspace, your web host…)? Send everything through it:

  1. Choose Your SMTP server and enter the host, port, username, and password.
  2. Click Test connection to confirm it works.
  3. Save.

Your password is stored encrypted and is only used to send this project's mail.

Unlimited sending: on a paid plan, using your own SMTP removes the monthly email limit - because you're sending through your own service, you can send as much as you like.

Good to know

  • You set this once per project, and it covers confirmations, reminders, and your marketing campaigns. When you compose a campaign, you'll simply see which sender it will use.
  • Account emails from us (sign-in, billing, password resets) always come from our own address - this setting only affects your website's emails.
  • Not sure which to pick? Start with Default, and switch to your own domain when you're ready.
