3 Steps to Setup Store Email Addresses in Magento 2
By default, Magento allows you to have five store email addresses associated with multiple business purposes. If you look at the backend, there are three predefined email identities:
- General contact
- Sales representatives
- Customer support
Each of them serves a specific purpose with an auto-message. You can set up to display the email identities as the senders of all emails sent from your store. Besides, Magento provides you with two other custom email identities to match your store’s distinct function and department.
Step 1: Set up the Email Address for Your Domain
Before making any changes, we recommend that you have an email address on your custom domain name. I mean, the email address should look something more optimal than any other free email account you may create. For example, instead of using [email protected], we use [email protected]. This slight difference brings us a professional vibe. Consequently, your business can build credibility and trust in the customer’s eyes.
You can either read your web hosting provider’s instructions or contact them to create an email address for your domain name.
Step 2: Configure the Email Address for Your Store
From the admin panel, go to Stores > Settings > Configuration:
Look at the left panel, span General >> Store Email Addresses:
Open General Contact:
Before configuring, please untick the Use system value checkmarks.
- Sender Name: This is the name of the person who appears as the sender of this email identity. In this case, enter the sender name of the General Contact identity.
- Sender Email: Enter the sender email address associated with this email identity.You can apply the same process for the rest in the email identity list.
After that, click Save Config.
