Shared Email Account

* Page referenced in this article: shared email account page.

Shared email account(s) is an important feature in LeadCenter that will allow you to send emails from LeadCenter using your domain and email accounts. By default, emails will be sent from no-reply@leadcenter.ai. If you need your emails to go to customers from your email account, please configure the settings on this page. If you need help, please send an email to support@leadcenter.ai

While LeadCenter provides the option to use an Office 365 or Gmail account to send emails, we strongly recommend using LeadCenter Email solution instead for following reasons:

  1. Microsoft, Google, or Yahoo may suspend your account(s) if used for mass email or sending the same email with the same subject and body to hundreds of contacts. This is a violation of their policy, as their email systems are intended for transactional email, not bulk or marketing emails.
  2. The email sending may fail as those systems limit the number of emails you can send per second.
  3. The LeadCenter email system allows you to track opens and clicks. Also contacts can subscribe and unsubscribe to your emails.
