How to send emails from my own domain?
In Youform, you can send auto-responder emails to your form responders after they have submitted your form.
To change this, you need to have a Pro Youform Plan and an email account from any of the email providers:
- Amazon SES
- Mailchimp
- SendGrid
- Mailgun
- ... etc.
To update your email settings, follow these steps:
Go to your dashboard.
Click on the top left corner.
Select the top left dropdown to go to organization settings.
Then click on the SMTP settings on the left menu. And then click on the "Add credentials" button:
A form will appear as described below, and you will need to fill it out. All fields are required except for the port number. The name you choose is for your own reference. To easily access these settings later, it is recommended to name them based on your provider. For example, if your provider is Middle Gun, you could name it Middle Gun SMTP or similar.
After you have added the SMTP credentials, it will ask you to add a sender email.
Remember: You can add multiple sender emails for the same SMTP credentials.
Once you have added the sender email, follow these steps to test if the email is functioning:
Click on the send button as shown in the image.
This action will trigger a test email.
If you receive the test email, then congrats, your SMTP is set up correctly and is working fine.
After this, proceed to your form integration to check the email settings. In the responder email section, select the sender email from the drop-down as shown below:
Tip: You can add multiple SMTP credentials in your organization.
