Customize Email Sender Details and Email Server for Investor Communications
✨ What’s new
Anduin Investor Portal allows you to customize your email sender details and/or configure your own SMTP settings directly in the app. This gives firms greater control over how investor communications are sent, without needing external setup or coordination.
👥 Who can use this feature?
All firm admins using the Investor Portal can configure these settings.
💡Why it matters
Email sender details and email server play a critical role in how firms communicate with investors.
This feature is especially valuable for firms that:
- Want investor emails sent via Anduin to clearly reflect the firm’s own branding, including sender name and email address; or
- Prefer to manage their own email domains or servers, while keeping all configuration details internal to the organization.
Key benefits
- Improved trust with LPs: Emails are sent under your firm’s name or through your own email server, creating a more branded and professional experience.
- In-app management: All email settings can be managed directly in the app—no external tools or support required.
- Flexible server options: Choose between Anduin’s email service or your own SMTP server based on your firm’s preferences.
⚙️ How It Works
Where to find it
In the Investor Portal app, go to the Settings tab → Email server sub-tab.
Option 1: Standard Email Customization
This option allows your firm to customize sender details while emails continue to be sent via Anduin’s email servers. You can customize:
- Sender name
- Sender email name (for example,
portal@yourfirm.com)
This option is suitable for firms that want a branded sender identity without managing their own email server.
Option 2: Custom SMTP Server
This option allows your firm to send investor emails directly from your own email server and domain. You can:
- Configure SMTP host, port, and authentication
- Define the sender name and sender email address
- Send a test email to verify the setup before using it for investor communications
⚡ Notes:
- Only one option can be enabled at a time; enabling one will disable the other
- Turning off all configurations will default back to Anduin’s default email service
