Sending Emails

Dashboard Composer

Send emails directly from the Taifa Mail dashboard using the built-in compose page.

The dashboard composer lets you draft, preview, and send emails without writing any code. It sends through the same endpoint as the REST API.

Selecting a sender

Click the From dropdown to choose a registered sender address. Only addresses on verified domains appear here. To add a new sender, go to Settings -> Domains and verify your domain first.

Adding recipients

Type email addresses into the To field, separated by commas. You can also type a name before the address:

Jane Doe <jane@example.com>, john@example.com

Click CC or BCC to expand those fields. They work the same way.

To send to an entire contact list, use Batch & List Sends instead of typing addresses individually.

Subject line

Enter the subject in the Subject field. Keep it under 60 characters for best deliverability. The character count is shown below the field.

Email body

The composer has two tabs:

  • HTML -- Write or paste HTML content.
  • Plain Text -- Write a plain text fallback.

Provide both an HTML and a plain text version where you can. Some recipients use text-only email clients, and including both versions improves deliverability. At least one of the two is required.

Loading a template

Click Load Template above the body editor to choose from your saved templates. The template HTML and plain text are loaded into the body fields. You can edit them before sending.

See Email Templates for details on creating and managing templates.

Tags

Add tags in the Tags field to categorize the email. Tags are comma-separated strings. Use them to filter emails later in Email Logs.

Examples: transactional, welcome, order-confirmation.

Scheduling for later

Check Schedule for later below the body editor to reveal the scheduling options. Pick a date and time, or use a quick option like "in 15 minutes" or "in 1 hour".

See Scheduling Emails for details.

Preview and send

Click Preview in the top-right corner to open the preview panel. The preview shows:

  • Rendered HTML as it will appear in the recipient's inbox.
  • Subject line and sender details.
  • Recipient count.
  • Scheduled time (if applicable).

Review the preview, then click Send (or Schedule if a send time is set). A confirmation dialog shows a summary before the email is dispatched.
