      Send Hub emails through your own SMTP server.

       

      🧰 What You Will Need

      1. A Paid Membership.io Subscription

      2. A Hub

      3. An email host with an outgoing (SMTP) server

       

      What can I use this for? 

      Using a custom email host will allow you to use your own SMTP server to send your Hub emails. This feature provides more control over email deliverability, but it requires a certain level of technical knowledge to use effectively. As a result, some may find it to be unnecessary for their needs.

      💡An SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server's primary purpose is to send, receive, and/or relay outgoing mail between email senders and receivers.

      NOTE: If using Gmail, the steps are a little different. For instructions on how to send your emails through Gmail, follow along with our article entitled Send Hub Emails through your Gmail Host. 

      Step 1 - Email configuration settings

      Head to the Emails tab in your Hub settings to access Email Configuration.

      Next, toggle the Use Custom Host option.

      Step 2 - Fill in the required fields

      For this article, we will be using a test SMTP server to fill out the fields below. You'll want to enter the information that is specific to your mail host. ✉️

      Step 3 - Test email delivery

      Once you have entered your mail host info and have saved your changes we can send a test email to make sure everything is working properly. 🤓

      Click on any Hub email template and then send a preview to an email address of your choice.
