# How to connect an email account to send outreach

> Send outreach from your own address and detect replies: connect a Gmail, Microsoft 365, IMAP, or SMTP mailbox.

To connect an email account, open the **Throttle dashboard**, add an email sender, choose your provider, and follow the connection steps.

## What this gets you

* Your outreach comes from your own address.
* With an inbound mailbox, Jobin can detect replies for your campaigns.
* You can connect any provider that offers SMTP.

## Steps

1. Open **More** > **Workspace** > **Throttle dashboard**, or **Settings** > **Messaging & sequences** > **Email accounts**.
2. Choose to add an email sender.
3. Choose how to connect the mailbox: **Gmail / Google Workspace**, **Microsoft 365 / Outlook**, **IMAP / SMTP**, or an **SMTP-only provider** such as Mailgun, SendGrid, or Amazon SES.
4. Enter the details your provider needs. For Gmail, use a generated app password. For SMTP, add the server details.
5. Add an inbound (IMAP) mailbox too. With outbound SMTP only, reply detection is disabled for campaigns.
6. Save, then choose the sender in your sequence.

## Tips

* The Help center has an **Email setup guide** with the exact fields and how to create an app password.

## Ideas to get more from it

* Connect an inbound (IMAP) mailbox too, so replies are detected.
* Share a sender with teammates when more than one person sends from it.
