Hey,
Can I verify my site on 2 different websites like mailgun, zoho?
I just want to have a custom e-mail (info@website.com). and use another one for things like email confirmation for the forum.
Thanks.
The discussion revolves around verifying a website on two different email services. MostafaXdev wants to use a custom email (info@website.com) and another email for forum confirmations. Stephen suggests using a subdomain for emails from the community and reserving the root domain for custom emails.
After MostafaXdev switched from Mailgun to Pepipost, he wonders if he should verify his site with Zoho. Stephen asks for clarification on the current email setup, and MostafaXdev confirms using Pepipost with SMTP credentials.
codinghorror states there’s no support for multiple simultaneous SMTP servers, and MostafaXdev reiterates his goal of using Pepipost and Zoho simultaneously for custom emails. However, codinghorror and Stephen confirm this is not supported, advising the use of a subdomain for emails from the Discourse installation instead.

Yes, but this isn’t an issue.
You should be using a subdomain for email from your community, and reserving your root domain for custom emails.
How can I do that? and what does “reserving your root domain for custom emails.” mean?
Configure your Zoho install to use @mywebsite.com while mailgun is configured to relay email from @community.mywebsite.com or similar.
I changed from mailgun to 'Pepipost and it’s working fine. Should I verify/link my site to zoho?
Could you explain what you mean by this?
Which domain does your Discourse installation currently use to send email? Are you sending messages from Discourse using the root domain (@mywebsite.com)?
It uses pepihost, and yes I set up the SMTP credentials.
There is no support for multiple simultaneous SMTP servers, and I’m not sure I really understand what you are requesting here?
I want a custom e-mail (support@website.com) but my mail service (pepipost) doesn’t support that. So i’m asking if I can use pepipost and Zoho at the same time.
No, you cannot. That is not supported.
As I said above two days ago, you need to use a subdomain to send and receive email from your Discourse install. They can’t both relay email from the root domain.
