Have DNS access available before verifying a sender domain.
Distinguish transactional/operational emails from marketing sends so the right settings and preferences apply.
Confirm sender-domain verification before relying on broadcasts or sequences.
Steps
Set organization sender name, support/reply-to details, and footer policy from account settings.
Add the sender domain and publish the DNS records shown by Topo.
Re-check verification until the domain is verified.
Use templates for automated transactional messages.
Use broadcasts and sequences for authored marketing messages.
Confirm bulk sends are enabled before relying on campaign delivery.

Common issues and fixes
Bulk send is disabled: verify sender-domain setup and confirm the environment allows real marketing sends.
Recipients are skipped: check subscription status, category preferences, selected lists, selected segments, and whether the audience has subscribed recipients.
AI or automation content looks wrong: update the source Help Docs, templates, or sequence steps, then review the draft before sending.
