Business email for Webflow — set up branded mail on your domain
Run professional email on your own domain alongside Webflow: how to connect mailboxes and send from your site for free. Practical guide for non-technical…
Webflow runs your site, but it is not your email host — and mail from a personal address undercuts the professional front you built. Here is how to add branded email on your own domain for free and wire it into Webflow.
Quick summary
- Mailboxes (for people): use IMAP/SMTP — outgoing is mail.oqumail.com, port 587, STARTTLS.
- Automated email (for the app): POST to https://api.oqumail.com/api/v1/emails with a Bearer API key.
- Add your domain to OquMail and verify the DNS records (guided).
- Create the mailboxes and role addresses you need (hello@, support@, billing@).
- Connect Webflow: point mailbox SMTP at OquMail, or call the send API for automated mail.
How email fits with Webflow
Webflow does not host email — add MX/TXT for OquMail at your DNS host to run branded mail alongside the site.
Two ways to connect
- Mailboxes (for people): use IMAP/SMTP — outgoing is mail.oqumail.com, port 587, STARTTLS.
- Automated email (for the app): POST to https://api.oqumail.com/api/v1/emails with a Bearer API key.
Setup in three steps
- Add your domain to OquMail and verify the DNS records (guided).
- Create the mailboxes and role addresses you need (hello@, support@, billing@).
- Connect Webflow: point mailbox SMTP at OquMail, or call the send API for automated mail.
Why it is worth it
Customers judge legitimacy by your email address. A branded inbox on the same domain as your site — free on OquMail — closes that trust gap without a monthly bill.
