# Custom From Email

The app dispatch emails. These emails are sent to customers and administrators upon new registrations. By default, the "from" email address is set to [**mailer@varify.xyz**](mailto:mailer@varify.xyz) which does have its limits.

For better branding and trust, it is recommended that customers configure a custom "from" email address using an email from their own domain.

The app allows to setup **SMTP** - Use your own email server or third-party SMTP service to send out emails.

## Benefits of Using Your Own SMTP

* **Custom "From" Address**: Send emails from your own domain (e.g., <notifications@yourcompany.com>)
* **Better Deliverability**: Emails sent from your domain are more likely to reach recipients' inboxes
* **Brand Consistency**: Maintain your brand identity in all communications
* **Control**: Manage your own email sending limits and configurations
* **Cost-Effective**: Many SMTP providers offer generous free tiers or affordable plans

## Setting Up SMTP

1. Navigate to \*\*Admin > Apps > My Product Registrations > App Settings > Integrations > SMTP settings
2. Fill out the information
3. Save the SMTP settings

The required fields:

* **From Email**: The email address you want to send from (e.g., <notifications@yourdomain.com>)
