Overview
PXME allows you to customize the “From Name” and “From Email Address” that appear when recipients receive your emails. This feature improves branding, builds trust with recipients, and ensures replies are directed to the correct inbox.
Examples:
SMTP may use a generic address like testcompany@gmail.com, but you can send campaigns from membership@testcompany.com.
Emails can appear to come from a specific user, e.g., paige.tester@testcompany.com.
How PXME Chooses the Sender Email
The system applies different rules depending on whether the contact is assigned or unassigned, and whether the email is manual or automated.
Priority Rules
Manual Emails
Unassigned Contact → Logged-in user email (1st priority).
Assigned Contact → Logged-in user email (1st priority).
Automated Emails (Campaigns & Workflows)
Unassigned Contact → Campaign/workflow settings (1st priority), Location email (2nd priority).
Assigned Contact → Campaign/workflow settings (1st priority), Assigned user email (2nd priority), Location email (3rd priority).
Review Request Emails
Always use the logged-in user’s email.
Appointment Request Emails
Sent from do-not-reply@replies.domain.com (or SMTP-integrated email) depending on your location subdomain setup.
How to Check If a Contact Is Assigned
Via Contacts/Smart Lists
Go to Contacts > Smart List.
Search and open the contact record.
Look for Assign to (displays the assigned user, or “Unassigned”).
Via Conversations Tab
Open Conversations.
Select the contact.
Click their profile icon → view full record → check assignment.
