Connect your email address to Boulevard to send both individual and group messages directly from the application. When using the group email function, Boulevard sends each message separately, similar to the way the bcc method works, so recipients only see their own copy of the email.
Please note that due to the many variables outside our support scope, we cannot assist with setting up the connection if you choose Options 2 or 3.
Options:
Gmail or Microsoft Email Addresses: This is the recommended method and applies if your email address is Gmail.com, Outlook.com, Live.com, Hotmail.com, or MSN.com.
Other Email Providers: If you do not have an email provider listed under Option 1, but would still like to utilize Boulevard's integrated email function, use this method.
Desktop Application: If you use an installed desktop application (such as Outlook, Mail, or Thunderbird) and prefer it when launching an email instead of Boulevard's integrated email function, follow this method. This option cannot be used when emailing Direct Payment Links.
