Ready for your emails to go live?

Ensure you've double checked the following:

1. Go through `Communicate > Email templates` and switch `Off` each email your organisation does not want sent.
2. Check each email you keep with `Preview Email`, and `Edit` any whose wording should be your organisation's own.
3. Decide whether administrators get the weekly digest: the `Send the weekly digest` switch on `Communicate > Email templates`.
4. Send from your own domain: under `Sending domain`, enter it, select `Add domain`, add the DNS records it lists, then select `Verify`.
5. Create the reminders your rounds need, such as 7 days before the closing date: `New Email Reminder` under `Email Reminders`.
6. If texts are on for your organisation, choose which messages also go by text: `Send as a text too` under `Text messages (SMS)`.
7. Know where to check what was sent and delivered: `Communicate > Email log`.


Who is told when an email cannot be delivered is set under `Undelivered messages`, on the organisation checklist.
