From this time, both companies have required bulk senders to authenticate their email domains. This means that starting February 2024, it is **mandatory to authenticate your domain in Prowly in order to continue sending emails through our platform**. For detailed instructions on how to authenticate your domain in Prowly, please refer to our [Help Center article](https://help.prowly.com/domain-authentication?hsLang=en). Prowly allows you to set the name and email address recipients will see in their inboxes. This means that one user can write email content but send it to someone else, for example, the company CEO or client in the case of agencies. You can change data in the **From address** and **From name** fields in the last step of email creation, called **Send.** ![emails edit from email](https://help.prowly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Help/Emails/emails%20edit%20from%20email.png?width=688&name=emails%20edit%20from%20email.png) Remember that in order to send emails from a certain mailing address, it first needs to be verified! Learn more on [how to verify the senders' address](https://help.prowly.com/how-to-verify-senders-email-address?hsLang=en). Journalists can, of course, answer your email and they will use the address visible in their mailbox, so check twice to confirm that you changed the address correctly. In many use cases, when changing the **From address**, you should also align the **From name **value to keep your communication consistent and credible. - [Write press releases](https://help.prowly.com/write-press-releases?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Guide to creating press releases with Prowly](https://help.prowly.com/write-press-releases?hsLang=en#guide-to-creating-press-releases-with-prowly) - [Writing and enriching press releases](https://help.prowly.com/write-press-releases?hsLang=en#writing-and-enriching-press-releases) - [Changing press release settings](https://help.prowly.com/write-press-releases?hsLang=en#changing-press-release-settings) - [Optimize newsroom](https://help.prowly.com/optimize-newsroom?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Newsroom configuration](https://help.prowly.com/optimize-newsroom?hsLang=en#newsroom-configuration) - [Adding and managing newsroom content](https://help.prowly.com/optimize-newsroom?hsLang=en#adding-and-managing-newsroom-content) - [Storing files and visuals](https://help.prowly.com/optimize-newsroom?hsLang=en#storing-files-and-visuals) - [Manage contacts](https://help.prowly.com/manage-contacts?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Using PR CRM](https://help.prowly.com/manage-contacts?hsLang=en#using-pr-crm) - [Managing contacts](https://help.prowly.com/manage-contacts?hsLang=en#managing-contacts) - [Protecting personal data](https://help.prowly.com/manage-contacts?hsLang=en#protecting-personal-data) - [Tags](https://help.prowly.com/manage-contacts?hsLang=en#tags) - [Send email pitches](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Guide to sending email pitches](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#guide-to-sending-email-pitches) - [Verifying email addresses](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#verifying-email-addresses) - [Creating new email](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#creating-new-email) - [Optimizing recipient lists](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#optimizing-recipient-lists) - [Writing email content](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#writing-email-content) - [Sending emails](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#sending-emails) - [Email academy](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#email-academy) - [Domain authentication](https://help.prowly.com/send-email-pitches?hsLang=en#domain-authentication) - [Find new media contacts](https://help.prowly.com/find-new-media-contacts?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Guide to finding new media contacts with Prowly](https://help.prowly.com/find-new-media-contacts?hsLang=en#guide-to-finding-new-media-contacts-with-prowly) - [Using Media Database](https://help.prowly.com/find-new-media-contacts?hsLang=en#using-media-database) - [Contact and export limits](https://help.prowly.com/find-new-media-contacts?hsLang=en#contact-and-export-limits) - [Media Monitoring](https://help.prowly.com/media-monitoring?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Guide to Media Monitoring](https://help.prowly.com/media-monitoring?hsLang=en#guide-to-media-monitoring) - [Browsing and filtering articles](https://help.prowly.com/media-monitoring?hsLang=en#browsing-and-filtering-articles) - [Dashboards and widgets](https://help.prowly.com/media-monitoring?hsLang=en#dashboards-and-widgets) - [Email notifications](https://help.prowly.com/media-monitoring?hsLang=en#email-notifications) - [Analyze PR performance](https://help.prowly.com/analyze-pr-performance?hsLang=en) - [Manage your account](https://help.prowly.com/manage-your-account?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Security and legal](https://help.prowly.com/manage-your-account?hsLang=en#security-and-legal) - [Connected inbox](https://help.prowly.com/manage-your-account?hsLang=en#connected-inbox) - [Subscription and payments](https://help.prowly.com/manage-your-account?hsLang=en#subscription-and-payments) - [Teamwork](https://help.prowly.com/manage-your-account?hsLang=en#teamwork) - [PR Reports](https://help.prowly.com/pr-reports?hsLang=en) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://help.prowly.com/hubfs/prowly-logo-3.svg "Chill listening crop-3")](https://help.prowly.com/?hsLang=en) Help Center Copyright © 2026, Prowly | part of Semrush Inc.
