Previously, users were only allowed to have 1 email address per account. In response to numerous user requests, WooSender now allows you to connect business and personal email addresses via the account settings and personal settings, including those from Gmail and Outlook, for sending emails. Users can also opt to use SMTP or IMAP to connect to a different email provider for email communications within WooSender.

The benefit of connecting a personal email is that it's already verified and authenticated, ensuring emails go directly to recipients' inboxes, and avoiding the promotions or spam folders.

You may have found that the settings sidebar has undergone a makeover. Our aim was to enhance user-friendliness and streamline the interface to clearly distinguish between personal and account settings. To connect with your business email provider, simply navigate to Account Settings ➡️ Account Email.
