How to change the email address that your messages send from

SmartrMail automatically sets your 'from' address to the email address that you use for Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce and Neto. However, due to recent policy changes by Gmail and Yahoo, it is highly beneficial to send emails using a custom domain that matches your business's website. This change helps improve deliverability and ensures your emails are trusted by recipients. We urge users to update their email IDs to meet this requirement and verify their domain settings.

Why Update Your Email ID and Domain Settings?

Updating your email ID and setting up a custom sending domain:

  • Enhances email deliverability.

  • Reduces the chances of your emails being marked as spam.

  • Increases trust and credibility with your recipients.

Steps to Update Your 'From' Address

  1. Go to Settings:

    • Click on the dropdown menu in the top right corner of your account.

    • Select "Settings" from the dropdown options.

  2. Navigate to Email Settings:

    • In the Settings menu, go to "Email Settings."

  3. Update Your Email ID:

    • In the Email Settings section, update your email ID to one that uses your custom domain (e.g., [email protected]).
