Communication Settings

Configure a custom SMTP server so Caska can send customer-facing emails through your own email address and domain.

Caska can send emails on your behalf using your own email server. This is optional — if you don't configure custom SMTP, Caska uses its own email system for all outbound messages.

Setting up custom SMTP

Go to Settings → Communication

Find the Communication section in your account settings.

Enter your SMTP server details

  • Host (e.g. smtp.gmail.com, smtp.mailgun.org)
  • Port (typically 587 for TLS or 465 for SSL)
  • Username and password
  • From name and from email address

Save and send a test email

Click Send Test Email to verify the connection is working before relying on it for customer emails.

Troubleshooting

If test emails aren't arriving:

  • Double-check your SMTP credentials
  • Make sure your email provider allows third-party SMTP access
  • Gmail users need an App Password rather than their regular account password — standard Gmail passwords won't work with third-party SMTP

The Follow-Up (re-engagement) system always sends via Caska's system email (Mailgun), regardless of your custom SMTP setting. This ensures reliable automated delivery.
