Connecting a mailbox
- Google Workspace / Gmail
- SMTP / IMAP (Microsoft, Fastmail, others)
- Many at once
Click Connect Google and sign in with the mailbox that should send. Salesfinity asks for a
single Gmail scope, the one that allows sending and reading mail for that mailbox, and nothing
else.Google returns a refresh token only on the very first authorisation. If a mailbox was connected
before and stops sending after a reconnect, disconnect it fully and connect again.
Pool and assignment
Every mailbox is either assigned to a rep or in the shared pool.- An assigned mailbox sends only that rep’s enrollments. Assigning a mailbox moves it out of the pool, so the pool is by construction the mailboxes nobody owns.
- A rep with no assigned mailbox sends from the pool. If the pool is empty and the rep has no mailbox, their sequences cannot send and Enable on a sequence with email steps is refused.
- A sequence can also be limited to specific mailboxes in its settings.
Limits, warmup and health
Health
Each mailbox shows a health status based on its domain’s DNS:
Open the mailbox and click DNS for the exact record, what was found, and the fix. Common ones:
- No SPF record: receiving servers cannot confirm your domain authorised the send. This is the single most common reason cold email lands in spam.
- Two SPF records: the standard treats this as an error and checks fail. Merge them into one.
- SPF ends in
?allor+all: authorises anyone to send as your domain. End it with~allor-all. - No DMARC: publish a
_dmarcrecord, starting withp=noneif you are unsure. - DKIM not found: Salesfinity tries the common selectors; if yours is custom, confirm DKIM in your provider’s admin console.
Test emails and placement tests
- Send test email on a mailbox sends a real message to an address you choose, through the connected account, so you can check the from name, signature and tracking.
- Deliverability › Placement tests (where available on your plan) send a set of test emails to seed inboxes at the major providers and report, per mailbox and per provider, whether they landed in the inbox, in promotions or in spam.
