Retreat Manager Email Setup
Updated: May 31, 2022
Retreat Manager is capable of sending emails to clients, but it must first be properly configured to ensure emails are received. To allow the recipients to reply to your emails such that you receive the response you must use your own email provider's settings.
If you use Google Workspace for emails please see this tutorial for how to properly set up security for email sending through Retreat Manager.
If you use Microsoft 365 (Outlook 365) for emails please see this tutorial for how to properly set up security for sending through Retreat Manager.
