Configure your professional email address for sending emails

To make the most of Fotostudio's features, it's very important to set up your professional email address for sending emails.


About email addresses


In Fotostudio, there are two email addresses for your account:

  • The email address in My account > My profile, used to log into your account and to receive the software's notifications.
  • The email address to set up for sending emails from the platform.


Why do I need to set up my email address for sending emails?


If you don't set anything up, all emails sent from Fotostudio go out from our no-reply@fotostudio.io address. Your clients therefore receive an email with our address as the sender, which can be confusing. On top of that, since our address sends a very large number of emails, we are more likely to run into delivery issues.


Sending through no-reply@fotostudio.io is limited to 30 emails per day.


Some email providers such as Hotmail, Outlook, Yahoo... (non-exhaustive list) don't allow their server to be configured. We therefore recommend using a Google address or an address on your own custom server.


Setting up your professional email address


Everything is set in Messaging > Settings > Sending/receiving server, in the Sending Method list. You have three options:


A Google address


Setting up a Google address (Gmail or a domain hosted by Google) is very simple. Just go to My account > My Google account and click Sign in with Google.

Once connected, choose Send with my Google account in the Sending Method list under Messaging > Settings > Sending/receiving server. You can also get there from My account > My Google account, Email Sending card, with the Modify email configuration button. Your Google address is then used to send emails from Fotostudio.

An address on a custom server


To set up a mail server, go to Messaging > Settings > Sending/receiving server. In the "Sending Method" list, choose "Use my own email server (SMTP)".

Then enter your mail server's settings:

  • Server/Host: your email host's SMTP (outgoing) server
  • Port: 465 or 587, depending on your host
  • Email: the email address you want to set up
  • Password: the password for this email address


Once saved, click Test configuration to check your credentials and your SPF record, then Send a test email.

If the sender is your address, you've done it! 🎉 If the sender is still our address, your settings aren't correct.


If you're unsure about your settings, don't hesitate to contact the support team via the chat at the bottom right to get help.
