Senders
Sender Profiles contain the business, sender name, from email address, reply-to email address, and physical address. This information is displayed in every email you send with Sendlane.
Create multiple Sender Profiles to best align with your email marketing and segmentation strategy!
In this Guide:
Before Getting Started
Be sure you've registered your own custom domain and have your custom domain email address in the From Email field to successfully create a Sender Profile & List.
Please Note
You cannot use a free email account such as Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc. for your From Email. Sendlane is compliant with all current data processing and privacy regulations which require all marketing emails to be sent from a paid, custom domain email address.

Troubleshooting
My 'From Email' is Not Being Accepted
If the New Sender Profile window is not accepting your From Email address, please be sure you are using a valid custom domain email address. Free email addresses such as Yahoo/Gmail/Hotmail cannot be used. If you are not using a free email, be sure there are no spaces added accidentally before or after the email address. If you are still experiencing trouble, completely delete the line and re-enter your email address.
Emails Sent with Incorrect Sender Information
If you notice that your emails are sending with the incorrect Sender Name or From Email, please review the Campaign or Automation email's assigned Sender Profile. If the correct Sender Profile is selected, please reach out to our Support Team.
