[Mass Comms] Use Your Own Email Address for Mass Communications

Overview You can now use your own email address when sending mass communications! Instead of having to set up and validate separate email addresses, you can simply choose to send from your personal email.

Perfect for teachers and staff Many teachers and staff members want to send mass communications from their own email address so recipients recognize who the message is coming from. Previously, this required administrators to validate each person's email address separately. Now you can just select your own name and email from the FROM address options.

Simple setup for administrators Administrators can make this even easier by setting "Sender User" as the default FROM address in Mass Comms settings. This way, when anyone creates a mass communication, their own email will be pre-selected automatically.

Works everywhere you send Whether you're creating mass communications from your Dashboard or using the mobile app, you'll see your own name and email as an option in the FROM field. This gives you the flexibility to send personal communications while using the powerful mass communication tools.

Streamlined for common scenarios This is especially helpful when:

• Teachers want to send class updates from their own email
• Staff need to communicate using their recognized email address
• Personal touch matters and you want recipients to see a familiar sender name

This makes mass communications more personal and eliminates the administrative overhead of managing multiple validated email addresses for individual users.
