Email sending provider
By default BusinessHRM sends your company's emails for you. You can choose to send from your own provider instead.
Where to find it›Connected apps›Email sending
Choose a provider
| Provider | What you need |
|---|---|
| BusinessHRM email (default) | Nothing. Your company name is shown and replies go to your company email. |
| Your SMTP server | Host, port, username, password, encryption (Gmail and Microsoft 365 need an app password). |
| Resend | An API key with sending access, and your From address on a domain verified in Resend. |
| Mailgun | An API key, your sending domain (must be "Active") and its region (US or EU). |
Steps
- Pick the provider, fill in the From name and From email and the provider's details.
- Click Save.
- Click Test connection to check the login / API key and domain without sending, then Send test to send a real email. Your provider is used once the test passes.
If your provider fails
BusinessHRM watches every send. If your provider rejects the login or key, the sender, or keeps timing out, it is paused and your email goes through BusinessHRM email automatically, so nothing is lost. Admins get a bell notification and an email. Fix the settings and Send test — a passing test switches back to your provider.
Plans
Your own provider needs a plan with the Own email and SMS provider option. Without it, BusinessHRM email is always used.
