How to set up a dedicated sending domain within a Sub-Account

Email marketing is a great way to reach customers and increase sales. But if you’re not careful, you could end up in trouble. A dedicated sending domain gives you control over what appears to be coming from your business. That means you can avoid spam filters and other issues that might make your messages get caught by unwanted mail servers.

Don’t let your email marketing efforts go unnoticed! Get started right away with a dedicated sending domain.

Please Note:

Dedicated sending domains are only applicable to the users in the LC - Email system.

How to choose a sending domain name for my account?

It would be best if you used a unique subdomain that is not used for any other purpose. A subdomain is a secondary part of your root domain. For example, if your dedicated sending domain is hello@mg.yourbrand.com, your subdomain would be the “mg” portion.
