Pink PostSend from your own mailboxes
Send from your own mailboxes
Pink Post sends every email from mailboxes you connect: Gmail, Google Workspace, Outlook, Zoho, Hostinger or any SMTP/IMAP provider. Emails go out from your address, replies come back to it, and your sender reputation stays yours.
Why it matters
Connect Gmail, Google Workspace, Outlook or any SMTP/IMAP mailbox and send from addresses you own.
Pink Post connects to your existing mailboxes over SMTP/IMAP, auto-detects server settings for common providers, tests the connection and then sends and reads replies from those accounts. Your reputation and relationships stay yours.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Is it safe to connect my mailbox?
Use an app password or a dedicated outreach mailbox; Pink Post only uses it to send and read replies.
Should I use my main domain?
Many link builders use a separate but related domain to protect the main one.
Can I connect Gmail?
Yes, Gmail and Google Workspace are supported.
Does it work with Gmail and Outlook mailboxes?
Yes. Pink Post works the same with Gmail, Google Workspace, Outlook, Zoho, Hostinger and any SMTP/IMAP mailbox you connect.
Is send from your own mailboxes on the free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes it; plans differ by mailboxes, prospects, emails per month, users and live link checks. Free has 1 mailbox and 300 emails a month, Solo $19 has 3 mailboxes, Pro $39 has 10 and Agency $129 has 30.
How is send from your own mailboxes different from a cold email tool?
Cold email tools are designed for sales pipelines. In Pink Post every feature feeds a link deal: replies move deals, deals hold prices, and live links keep being checked, so the result of the campaign is a list of live links with their cost.
