📮Create a Postal Route

Once you've created a method of delivering email such as SMTP Relay, API, or a Velocity MTA delivery policy, you'll need to add a postal route before it can be assigned to a frontend customer account and used by the email marketing frontend.

Click Customers from the top navigation, select Postal Routes, and click Create Postal Route.

Postal routes menu
Create postal route

Name

Give your postal route a name. This name will be selectable in the frontend customer account on the email marketing platform whenever you send a message.

Select your Relay, API, or MTA Policy

New postal routes have "Drop All Mail" selected by default for safety. Choose the SMTP Relay, API, or Velocity MTA policy you want your email delivered through in the dropdown menu.
