Use a free sending address on ours
No domain, no DNS — a signed address in one click.
No domain, or no access to its DNS? Claim an address on ours in Settings — something like hello@yourname.inboxpenny.com. It works immediately, and replies go to your normal inbox.
Who it's for
Two groups, and neither is doing anything wrong:
- People with no domain at all — a solo realtor, a coach, a tutor with a list and a Gmail address.
- People with a domain they can’t publish DNS for — an agent at a big brokerage, a doctor at a hospital. The domain exists; IT isn’t going to add records for your newsletter.
Why you can't just send from your Gmail
Since 2024, Gmail and Yahoo require bulk mail to be authenticated against the domain in the From address — and nobody except Google can authenticate gmail.com. Mail claiming to be from a Gmail address, sent by anyone else, is refused or binned.
Every reputable platform stopped allowing it at that deadline. An address on our domain is the honest way round: it’s an address that genuinely is ours to sign for.
What you get
- Properly signed and aligned mail, exactly like a custom domain.
- Replies reach you. They go to your own mailbox — nothing receives mail at the sending address itself.
- Your business name still shows as the sender name.
- It works instantly. No DNS, no waiting.
Your daily limit is lower on this route
This lane sends under our shared reputation, so its ceiling is lower than a verified domain’s. Fine for a few thousand a day; if you grow past it, verifying your own domain lifts it.
Choosing the name
Use your business name. Some names are refused — anything resembling a bank, a payment company or a delivery service, and infrastructure-sounding words.
That isn’t arbitrary: this address is signed by us, so a convincing impersonation would carry our signature. The check is what keeps the lane open for everyone.
One address per account, and it can’t be swapped later — so nobody can walk away from a reputation they’ve earned.
Common issues
The name I want is refused
It resembles a protected brand or a reserved word. Try your business name in full, or add a word to it.
Recipients see an address they don't recognise
Your sender name is what most people read, and that’s yours. If it matters commercially, verifying your own domain is the fix.
Can I get a higher limit on this?
Verify a domain. The lower ceiling is inherent to sending under a shared identity.
FAQs
Can I switch to my own domain later?+
Yes, whenever. Verify it and start sending from it — nothing about your contacts or history changes.
Do people reply to the inboxpenny.com address?+
They reply where you tell them to. Replies are directed to your real mailbox, since nothing receives mail at the sending address itself.
Is this worse for deliverability?+
Slightly, and honestly. Your own domain builds a reputation that is yours alone; this shares one. Both are properly authenticated, which is the part that decides whether mail is accepted at all.
