Domains
To send outbound emails using Message2Give, you need an Email Alias to send the email with. This email alias also needs a Domain (eg 'example.com' is the domain in 'abc123@example.com'). You must register these domains with Message2Give before you can use them for emails within your workspace. Here is where you register your domains with Message2Give.

Then, to register your domain in your workspace, click Create.
