Abstract
- Email routing is the process of directing emails from a sender to the intended recipient’s inbox. It involves a series of rules that ensure emails reach the correct destination
Security
Filter spam and potentially harmful emails.
Email distribution to corresponding category
Manages a high volume of emails, sorting them into different inboxes for customer support, sales, marketing, etc.
Privacy
Creates custom addresses without revealing your primary email.
Flexibility
We have the freedom to switch the destination email providers and use our custom domain name to receive emails without paying a fee
Whitelist sender emails in Gmail
If you are routing emails to Gmail inbox, some senders may be blocked. You can refer to here to whitelist those emails.
Email Routing Mechanism
- We set the MX Record of Domain Name to point to the Email Routing server. So when a sender sends an email to the domain name, the email routing server is able to receive and apply the routing rules and forward to the destination email inbox if all rules are met
