Infigo Academy: Email accounts and message templates

This article will explain the information you will need to provide us in order to set up a new email account on your system. This can be completed on the Platform Level so that the email is available across all storefronts, or configured at the storefront level if you wish for it to be available for an individual storefront.

Email accounts are found in Configuration > Email Accounts. 

Below is what we require from you to set up a new email account:

- Email Address (From)

(Where the email will be sent from)
 
- Email Display Name

You can also send a test email from the email account you have just set up
Click 'Edit' on the email account > Type in an email address in 'Send to email' > click 'Send'

If you're having difficulties sending from your new email account please test the SMTP connection before contacting support. This is helpful when trying to identify the cause.
