Branding your emails
From name and reply-to
Set these once under Settings → Email Templates → Sender settings:- From name — what appears in the recipient’s inbox (e.g. “Acme Support”).
- Reply-to address — where replies go (e.g.
hello@acme.com).
Logo in the email header
Upload a header logo (600×200 pixels recommended) under Sender settings. It appears at the top of every email.Footer text
Add a workspace-wide footer such as your company address, a link to your privacy policy, or an unsubscribe note.Sending a test
Click Send test on any template and provide an email address. The test is delivered with dummy merge values so you can verify styling without triggering the real event.Resetting to default
If you’ve edited a template and want to revert, click Reset to default at the bottom of the editor. This restores the original wording.Disabling a template
Some events you may not want to email at all — for instance, some workspaces prefer in-app notifications only for ticket assignments. Toggle Active off at the top of the template. The event still fires in-app; only the email is suppressed.You cannot disable Staff invitation or Password reset — these are required for account security.
Troubleshooting

Emails aren't arriving.
Check the recipient’s spam folder first. If emails consistently land in spam, ask your admin to configure a custom sender domain — contact support@xobito.com.

You typed the field manually. Delete it and re-insert using the Insert field button so the system recognises it.

Upload a higher resolution version — we recommend 1200×400 pixels at 72 DPI. Emails render at 2x on retina displays.

Some email clients (notably Outlook) strip advanced CSS. Stick to simple styling — headings, bold, italic, links — for maximum compatibility.
