Sender details are essential components that appear in the From: line of your email campaigns. Here's how to set them up properly:

Before Starting

To ensure optimal email delivery and avoid spam filters:

• Use a custom email domain (e.g., [email protected]) instead of free email services
• Ensure all information is accurate to comply with CAN-SPAM Act
• Note that you can create up to 10 sender details but use only one at a time

Verification Requirements

Two types of verification are needed:

• Email Verification: Confirms your email address is valid
• Domain Verification: Proves ownership of your sending domain

Step-by-Step Setup Process

1. Create Sender Details:

• Access Email Campaign Settings
• Click "Sender Details" then "Add Sender"
• Enter sender name and email address

2. Verify Email Address:

• Check your inbox for verification code
• Enter the code in the setup window
• Check spam folder if email isn't received

3. Verify Domain:

• Squarespace domains: Automatically verified
• Third-party domains: Require manual verification
• DMARC policy domains: Must be verified before use

Managing Sender Details
