Before you begin

A custom email address contains your business name, and it looks more official and trustworthy than an email address that doesn't have a custom domain. All notifications come from your name, not from Affise. There's a good chance your email is read and not ignored.

⚠️ Starting from September, 30, 2024 Google is deprecating the ability to authenticate SMTP servers using login-password credentials. Please, switch to another SMTP server to keep using custom SMTP settings.
