Send as

You have the option to modify both the sender name and the reply-to email address. If your organization has a custom domain configured, you can also select additional send-from email addresses.

• The send-from email address is the email that appears in your recipient’s inboxes if you have set up a custom domain with Axios HQ.
  • ❗Certain send-from addresses may be locked by your account Admins. If you have access to a specific send-from address, you will see it in the send-from dropdown. 
  • If you do not have access to a specific send-from address, you have the option to send from your own email address or noreply@customdomain.com. 
• The reply-to email address will also serve as the sender email address if a custom domain is set up. 
  • If you do not have a custom domain, your recipients will receive the series from noreply@axioshq.com. 
  • If you’d like to set up a custom domain with Axios HQ, reach out to your account manager! You can check out a short explanation on our Custom Domain integration here.
