The Additional Settings button, available next to the IP address, provides access to advanced features that can be customized individually for each SMTP subaccount.
To obtain a detailed description of each setting, the menu on the left should be used.
In the General Settings tab, it is possible to change the name and password of the SMTP account.
Changing the SMTP Name: The Name option allows the definition of a name that will be visible in the panel and associated with a specific type of email traffic sent through the given SMTP account. It is recommended to choose intuitive names that reflect the nature of the messages being sent, making it easier to manage multiple SMTP accounts.
Changing the Password: Here, the SMTP account password can be changed. By clicking the Change Password checkbox, a field for entering the new password will appear, along with a password generator that will automatically generate a strong and secure password.
To ensure account security, the password should be changed regularly.
The IP Authorization feature allows access to the SMTP server to be restricted to a specific IP address or group of IP addresses. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access, even in the event of a password breach.
To configure IP authorization, the following steps should be taken:
The IP address or mask should be specified in the appropriate field of the form.
The Add button should be clicked to include the IP address or mask in the list of authorized addresses. After being added, the list of IP addresses authorized to connect to the SMTP server will be displayed below.
SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is an email authorization standard that helps verify whether the sender can send emails on behalf of a particular domain. This mechanism protects against sender spoofing and enhances the credibility of the sent emails.
The functionality is enabled by default. An appropriate entry must be added to the domain's TXT record in its DNS settings to ensure proper operation.
Detailed instructions for adding an SPF record can be found.
S/MIME (Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) is a cryptographic standard used for encrypting and signing email messages, ensuring the security of their content, and verifying the authenticity of the sender. With S/MIME, emails are protected from unauthorized access, and recipients can trust that the message originates from the correct sender.
To use S/MIME, a digital certificate must be purchased and provided for configuration. The certificate assigned to the email address can be found.
For information regarding the cost of implementing the S/MIME certificate, contacting the support team is recommended.
The feature allows for the automatic blocking of emails sent to temporary email addresses provided by services such as Temp Mail or YOPmail. Temporary mailboxes allow users to create email addresses without registration, and messages sent to these addresses are deleted after a certain period.
When the Block disposable temporary addresses option is enabled, any message sent to a temporary email address will automatically be marked with the status dropped and added to the blacklist, preventing further delivery attempts to these addresses.
The Tags feature enables automatic tagging of groups of emails by assigning appropriate labels. Tags can be applied to messages based on the sender's address or the subject line.
From Field Rule: A tag will be assigned to messages based on the sender’s email address. A specific email address must be entered to create the rule.
Subject Field Rule: Tags will be assigned based on the message subject. Adding an asterisk (*) at the end of the phrase will tag all messages containing the specified phrase and any additional content following it. If the asterisk is not used, only messages with an exact match to the phrase will be tagged.
The asterisk (*) can only be used for subject fields.
To configure a new rule, the Add New Rule should be selected
The method for assigning tags can be chosen by selecting either From Field or the Subject Field.
The Search Phrase and Tag fields should be filled in.
The "Search Phrase" field allows the use of alphanumeric characters and special symbols: @ / \ ( ) + - # % ! & , . ' " | : ?
Once all fields have been completed, the Add button should be clicked on. Created rules will be displayed in a list below, where they can be reviewed and deleted if necessary.
The Headers feature allows additional parameters to be added to email messages that are passed to the recipient’s server. These headers help mailbox providers such as Gmail or Yahoo understand the nature of the message and categorize it into the appropriate folder.
Configuring Headers
To enable this option, the switch next to the Headers feature in the SMTP server settings should be slid.
Next, the type of email delivery should be selected. Three options are available:
No type: In this case, the "precedence" header will not be added. This option is suitable for general emails.
Transaction shipping list: This type of message is sent to a single recipient and has a transactional nature, such as registration confirmations or password reminders.
Bulk marketing sending: This type of message is sent to multiple recipients simultaneously, such as newsletters or sales offers.
After selecting the desired option, the Save button should be clicked on.
The Footer is a permanent signature placed at the bottom of every sent email. It may contain contact information, links to websites, privacy policies, and other relevant content.
Configuring the Footer
To configure this option, the switch next to the Footer feature should be slid.
Next, the prepared footer should be added:
HTML Version: Allows the inclusion of the footer in HTML format, enabling the use of HTML code for formatting and styling the footer content.
Text Version: Allows the inclusion of the footer in plain text format, where the content is added without formatting (TXT version).
After completing the configuration, Save and turn on should be clicked to enable the footer in email messages.
The Link Tracking feature allows monitoring of recipients who clicked the links in an email. The system collects not only click data but also the geolocation, operating system, and browser information of the user. These insights help optimize communication strategies by better understanding recipient behavior.
Configuring Link Tracking
To enable this feature, the switch for Link Tracking in the SMTP server settings should be slid.
Then, the checkbox for Tracking plain-text e-mails should be marked.
Save should be clicked to activate the feature.
The Open Tracking feature allows tracking of email opens, helping to monitor which messages have been opened. This provides insights into recipient engagement and reactions to sent communications.
Configuring Open Tracking
To enable Open Tracking, the switch in the SMTP server settings should be slid.
Deep Links are special hyperlinks that redirect email recipients directly to a specific resource or section within a mobile app or website. Unlike standard links that lead to general pages, deep links direct users to specific content, such as products, offers, or articles, improving the user experience and increasing the effectiveness of marketing efforts.
To activate deep links, the technical support team should be contacted.
The Google Analytics feature allows the addition of special parameters to the links within emails. This enables tracking of user traffic and behaviors, such as purchases, registrations, or clicks on email links. These data are passed to Google Analytics, allowing for better analysis of the effectiveness of email marketing campaigns.
Configuring Google Analytics
To activate Google Analytics, the switch for Google Analytics in the SMTP server settings should be slid.
Next, Add a new rule should be clicked.
A rule can be set for the From fields (sender's address) or the Subject fields of the email.
In the Search phrase field, the term to be searched in the respective fields should be entered.
In the utm_campaign field, a unique campaign name that will be visible in Google Analytics should be entered.
For emails that do not match the defined rules, the default campaign name will be "default."
After adding the rule, it will appear in the list below, where it can be removed if necessary by clicking Delete.
The Unsubscribe feature allows easy management of user opt-outs from email subscriptions in compliance with GDPR privacy regulations. This ensures that users can conveniently unsubscribe from receiving emails, ensuring legal compliance.
Configuring Unsubscribe
To activate Unsubscribe, the switch for Unsubscribe in the SMTP server settings should be slid. Two configuration options are available:
Unsubscribe Page
This option generates a ready-made page where recipients can unsubscribe from the email list. To configure it, the following should be completed:
Add a logo.
Fill in the following fields:
Unsubscribe details
Button Title
Appreciation text
In the email message, the following code should be inserted:
<a href="##unsubscribe_link##">{{ link text }}</a>
where {{ link text }} can be replaced with any text, such as "Click here to unsubscribe." Additionally, the "Lis unsubscribe" option can be activated, which adds an "Unsubscribe" button next to the sender field in some email clients like Gmail and Outlook.
Redirect to a Specified Page:
In this option, the recipient will be redirected to a specified URL after clicking the Unsubscribe link. At the same time, their email address will be automatically added to the blacklist in the panel.
To enter the full URL address where the user is going to be redirected after clicking on the “Unsubscribe” button, the appropriate field should be filled in. Clicking Save confirms the operation.
The Blacklist settings are used to manage the scope of email address blocking.
Types of Blacklist
Two options are available in the Email API:
Blacklist by SMTP: Allows the creation of independent blacklists for each SMTP subaccount, enabling precise management of blocked addresses.
Blacklist for all SMTP accounts: Creates a single blacklist shared across all SMTP subaccounts, simplifying global management of blocked addresses.
Validity of entries on the blacklist
This setting defines how long blacklist entries will be retained in the system:
No expiration: Entries remain on the blacklist indefinitely.
1 to 6 Months: Entries are automatically removed from the blacklist after a selected period (from 1 to 6 months).
Bounce number before address blocking
This setting allows specifying the number of hard bounces after which an email address will be blocked:
1 to 3 Bounces: Provides the option to block an address after 1, 2, or 3 hard bounces. By default, the block occurs after the first bounce.
Note: The number of bounces only determines when the blocking mechanism is activated. An email address will be registered on the blacklist after the first hard bounce, regardless of the selected bounce threshold before the block.
This feature enables the creation and sending of personalized emails, where content is dynamically replaced by the appropriate variables. Templates can be uploaded directly to the servers and used for mass mailing via the API.
Configuring an Email Template
To add a new template, the "+" button on the right side should be clicked. Next, the following fields should be filled in:
HTML version: The HTML template, containing the appropriate tags for content replacement.
Name: A unique name for the template.
SMTP Account: The account from which the emails will be sent.
Description: A brief description of the template.
Text version: An alternative version of the template in plain text format.
Clicking Save confirms the operation.
Sending Emails with a Template
Once the template has been added (via the panel or API), emails can be sent using the POST method (sendmail_templates).
During the sending process, an array of data is passed, including the recipients' email addresses and the variables that will be inserted into the template. The system automatically replaces the variables, generates the emails, and sends them to the specified recipients.
The method supports sending to up to 200 recipients in a single array.
Multithreaded sending can be utilized, significantly speeding up the process.
Details about sending emails with templates can be found in the API documentation.
