Send Email Using a Microsoft Office or Google Workspace Account

As an alternative to sending email using our SMTP email service, you can optionally send email using a Microsoft Office or Google Workspace Account.

There are some important limitations to note if you use a Microsoft or Google account.

  • Both providers have quotas and usage limits. Please read the Google Quotas & Limits or the Microsoft Office Online Limits.

  • Email Delivery, Bounce and Open reports will not be available in your KISREC email logs.

  • You must use an account that has the same email address as the one you use to login to KISREC.

The send rate limits that have been imposed by both providers means that KISREC can only send 1 email every 2 seconds.

How to connect your Microsoft Office or Google Workspace Account

Just before you send an email you will have the option to connect your account.

Sign In

Only one of the Sign In buttons will be shown. If both the Microsoft and Google Sign In buttons are missing, please get in touch to have one enabled on your KISREC account.

Once you have successfully authenticated your account and given KISREC permission to use your account to send emails, KISREC will then use it when you send an email instead of our SMTP email service.

Google Workspace Connected

Your emails will continue to be logged in KISREC as normal and they will also appear in the Sent folder in your email client such as Outlook or Gmail.

If at anytime you wish to revert back to using our SMTP email service, simply sign out of your connected account.
