Send form emails from your own domain

Connect Gmail, Outlook, or any SMTP server — Mailgun, SendGrid, Amazon SES — and Formester sends your form's notifications and autoresponders from your own address. Better deliverability, instant brand trust, and no code to maintain.

Why it matters

Your forms, your email identity

By default, form emails go out from Formester's sender. Connect your own email and every notification and auto-reply comes from your address instead — better deliverability and instant brand trust.

From your domain

Email that looks like you

Alerts and replies go out from forms@yourco.com, not a generic no-reply. Recipients recognise the sender, so your form emails feel like a real message from your business.

Deliverability

Land in the inbox, not spam

Sending through your own provider — Gmail, Outlook, Mailgun, SendGrid, or SES — uses your established reputation, so notifications and auto-replies reach people reliably.

Full control

Use the provider you trust

Keep your email on the service you already run. Pick OAuth for Gmail and Outlook, or any SMTP host for full control over how your form emails are sent.

How it works

Connect your email in three steps

Open Integrations, add your account with OAuth or SMTP details, then pick it as the sender — Formester sends every form email from your address from then on.

01

Open Integrations and add an account

In Formester, go to Integrations and click Add Integration. Choose Gmail or Outlook for an instant one-click connection over OAuth, or pick a custom SMTP server for any other provider.

02

Enter your SMTP details

For a custom server, click the three dots then Add Account and fill in your integration name, username, password, port, SMTP server (e.g. smtp.mailgun.org), from name, and from address. Save to activate.

Pick it as the sender

Open your form's Email Notifications and Autoresponders and select your new address as the sender. From now on every alert and auto-reply for that form sends from your own email.

Sending from your domain
Who it's for

Made for teams who send from their own name

Anywhere form emails go out under your brand, your own sender keeps them recognisable, deliverable, and consistent with the rest of your mail.

Agencies

Client-branded sending

Run forms for clients and send each one's notifications and auto-replies from that client's own domain — so every email matches the brand it belongs to.

Businesses

A consistent sending domain

Keep form emails on the same address as the rest of your business mail, so respondents always see one trusted sender instead of a third-party no-reply.

High volume

High-volume senders

Route through Mailgun, SendGrid, or Amazon SES to send large batches of confirmations and alerts on infrastructure built for deliverability at scale.
