Send and share

Send from your own mail server

On Business, customer emails can go through your own SMTP server — Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Zoho Mail or any provider — from your own address. Emails your server sends use no Hectile email credits.

When your server says no

Retries and a clear reason

If your server refuses an email, Hectile keeps its reply and tries again after 5, 15 and 40 minutes, then tells the sender. An optional fallback sends it through Hectile’s service once instead (charged as usual).

Always from HectileSign-in codes, invitations, portal sign-in codes, notifications and Hectile’s own emails always come from Hectile, so they arrive whatever happens to your server.
