Hey Alex! It seems like email forwarding from cloudflare doesn't work anymore for new domains... It keeps throwing messages that the custom address emails don't exist
Thanks for the great explanation, I have a question for you, on minute 10:15 you can see an "Unsubscribe" button I'm supposing it's related to the email headers "list-unsubscribe" is there any way to get rid of that header? I don't want people on the other end of the loop thinking they are part of a mailing list they have never subscribed to and that "Unsubscribe" feature is really getting in the way
I found that problem, Cloudflare says they forwarded but my Gmail doesn't show me not even in the spam folder! Then I disabled Cloudflare email forwarding and used my hosting default email but still I'm facing issues. Seems Gmail is going to be very strict nowadays!!
@IdeaSpot Why do you always opt to use an SMTP relay instead of "treat as an alias" and using the gmail server settings? What is the advantage of using brevo instead of smtp.gmail.com for sending?
Negative experience with Brevo after following the instructions in this video: They suspend accounts without giving reason or notification, and there's no process to provide more information to validate your account and lift the suspension. Made a new account and after sending 4 test emails to myself back and forth to confirm the custom domain routing was working, my account was suspended without any warning or without being notified. I only found out because an email wouldn't send, then when I check the email campaigns page in the dashboard it says there that there is a suspension. I didn't get an email or even some kind of in-website prompt/notification. I opened a customer service ticket asking why and how to remediate, the response said they wouldn't say why my account was suspended and they don't actually have any way to remediate. So basically they just have a non-transparent one-way valve to lose customers.
Thanks. Works, but in my case Gmail treats these emails as "Promotions", so it is big chance that they will not appear in "Primary' only in 'All Mail".
Followed the guide, everything works, except any email I write under the alias is simply not sending. No error messages on either the receiver, or sender emails. Anyone know how to fix this?
Another excellent video, you should make more! Is there any chance you could do one on setting up Oracle Cloud Email Delivery on the free tier, as I haven't been able to get it to work despite spending hours on it? You have a knack for making tricky things doable.
How do you change the Gmail profile picture for the business email? Thanks. (I'd followed the instructions for this step within the previous version of this video. The common issue seemed to be not being able to receive the Google accounts verification email at the business address)
@@IdeaSpot I've tried it multiple times over the course of the month. Same result with no verification email coming through. When was the last time this worked for you? Thanks
I'm trying to figure out what "it doesn't work on Cloudflare" means in this context. What exactly isn't working at Cloudflare? All of my email forwarders work there and they are not connected with Gmail. So I am confused as to what exactly is not working.
@@IdeaSpot This is alarming to me because I am relying heavily on some Cloudflare forwarders going to a kinda "catch all" gmail account that I use. I just tested one of the more important ones and it worked instantly and nicely. But now that I am hearing this I'll have to poke around inside my Cloudflare account and test a bunch of things to make sure nobodies emails are going into the ether. Have your Cloudflare forwarders gone into the gmail spam filters, or just been blocked completely in a hidden way?

No problem with Cloudflare and Gmail. All working flawlessly oj multiple accounts. Not sure where is he facing problems
its very inconsistent, some days it will work, sometimes its impossible to get verification emails. After setting up the false spam percentage seems to be pretty high too. What type of domain extension are you on @DominikLackovic1 ? I suspect the .space or .site that I test with don't work as well as .com for example
Any updates these days guys? Would improvmx be a reliable choice "set it and forget it" for 5-10 years ahead? Would you be setting up budget clients' emails like that?
im starting from square one, is there any free website builders/blogs that i can use to document my journey and one day connect it to google ads and make money running ads on my site?
what are your current updates in this? I don't have free software, but I do have website builder software that includes all types of online marketing tools plus website building and other things
Hi I am your subscriber from India I have been using Cloudflare's own email forwarding service to forward emails to my Gmail but since last week I noticed that majority of my emails are not forwarded saying DMARC fail, DKIM status none SPF pass and showing (Gmail has detected this email is suspicious etc ) since the policy change from Gmail, please create a video on this.
@IdeaSpot yes definitely interested in Yahoo method as it would allow us access to 1TB storage. I tried setting this up but for send as, couldn't find a SMTP option like we have on Gmail. But forwarding works flawlessly, no reply emails are not being blocked like Gmail does.
Can I configure multiple custom domain emails via this method? Example... info@, sales@, support@ Or would those each have to be going to different gmail accounts. Hope that makes sense. Great video!
So you paid a cloudflare custom mail address, right? The free thing is getting improvmx forwarding and gmail working together. But before you paid cloudflare mail hosting, didn't you?
You just need to create a Google account using your business email, and from there, change the profile picture. It will be automatically reflected when sending emails from the alias
This to much of an hassle and a disaster waiting to happen if you rely on email which you probably do since you using a custom address. Anyone that needs a custom email might as well pay a couple of euros a month and pay for email.
@@IdeaSpot Hey man, thanks for this vid, it is great! I do still have the problem where I did not receive the confirmation email to set up the costum avatar. Do you have an idea of how to fix this?
I've been testing this - gmail doesn't seem to allow email forwarders (cloudflare or improv) for setting up the custom avatar - I tried setting it up on Zoho to get the avatar, then switched back to improv and that worked around it, so you could try that if you really want your gmail avatar.
Authentication failed. Please check your username/password. Server returned error: "530 Invalid username or password , code: 530" on Gmail popup using Brevo credentials been trying for 3 days :(
2:20 to skip the yapping

do you mean that by using improvmx I will land in spam? thanks
10:20 I don't have DKIM pass, only the SPF. Should I be worried?
Thank you so much mate this was extremely helpful! thank you for sharing your wisdom with the world :)
Will this setup work for Aweber DKIN and SPF? Thanks
Hey, always saving lives. Thanks again!!!
Thank you, you are the best
Is there another service alternative to brevo because it is not supported in my country?
Great video - Thanks! Do you think you could add a video showing how to connect this configuration into the iOS email app?
very nice video!! gained a sub!!!
Followed the guide, everything works, except any email I write under the alias is simply not sending. No error messages on either the receiver, or sender emails. Anyone know how to fix this?
Keep the "Treat as an alias" checkbox checked at 8:25
Thanks man. Appreciated
Thank you so much. I ahve been trying to solve this SEND issue for a long time.
Great video! Its works. But how to connect to other email provider like outlook spark or other?
Hey Alex... i have used outlook for a decade. Will this work using outlook (I have optus with it), cheers
are you already paying for MS office 365? You will have email include in your account already, you dont need these videos :D
followed all instructions but can't send email.
Another excellent video, you should make more! Is there any chance you could do one on setting up Oracle Cloud Email Delivery on the free tier, as I haven't been able to get it to work despite spending hours on it? You have a knack for making tricky things doable.
I did actually get that working once... 😅 yes I should have another look
Hello, can i warm up this custom email on instantly for cold emailing
How do you change the Gmail profile picture for the business email? Thanks.
(I'd followed the instructions for this step within the previous version of this video. The common issue seemed to be not being able to receive the Google accounts verification email at the business address)
Just try it again another day, sometimes the email won’t come through

You are a very good teacher, learned a lot today.
Thank you.
If I could ask maybe just slow up a bit would be helpful, if you could.
Thank's again
Any updates these days guys?
Would improvmx be a reliable choice "set it and forget it" for 5-10 years ahead?
Would you be setting up budget clients' emails like that?
is there a way to get a custom icon in the profil picture of the custom email adress?
1st Comment, Love from India ❤
thanks!!
great. Thank you
Infomaniak Mail does it without hassle (i think you just need to link your domain and you can use their mail servers)
i am not sure if you are going to see this. but thank you man!

Gmail doesn't work with Cloudflare anymore?
its not sending to my email what so ever, any troubleshooting suggestions?

The emails show - This message is from a mailing list - Is there a way to get rid of this?
Thank You Dear!

Interested on the yahoo one :)

Can you do a protonmail with custom domain tutorial
Yes that’s worth a look

I have same issue. Any advice, please?
Pls do aws setup
Can we change a password? and how it work on phones?
please make video about Hostgator problems
Oh what’s happening?
Thank you so much 😭😭
will this be reliable long term?
It´s sending my emails twice, what would I´ve done wrong?

Yes, you can. I did it with two different ones and I just created a new SMTP key for each of them.
make tutorials about web hosting sites
So you paid a cloudflare custom mail address, right?
The free thing is getting improvmx forwarding and gmail working together. But before you paid cloudflare mail hosting, didn't you?
No, the only thing you need to buy for this one is the domain name, which can be bought from anywhere (namecheap, godaddy)
Can you do a video on setting up audiobookshelf on Oracle Cloud free tier?
Is it possible to add a profile picture to your business email?
You just need to create a Google account using your business email, and from there, change the profile picture. It will be automatically reflected when sending emails from the alias

this video for expert only.
You said its free but I'll have to buy a domain
Buy a domain. Make sure to spend the $20 or $30 bucks for a few years. The time flies by really quickly.
Thanks.
I did not receive the confirmation email to gmail from cloudflare when i follow ur previous video.
Thanks again for this tutorial.❤
Yes this will fix it 👍👍

I'm currently using ZeptoMail and is working fine, though the bounce email address and domain validation is a little confusing but it's free too!
Cool, I should look at this for comparison too
