# Send Email Through Salesforce

Your users are in Salesforce all day long to review customer information, log activity, and create reports. So, why not make it easy on them and let them send email right from Salesforce?

- **[Which Option for Sending Email from Salesforce Is Best for Your Organization?](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.emailadmin_send_email_from_salesforce_options.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    There are several options that let your users send email right from Salesforce. These options depend on whether your organization uses Lightning Experience, whether your company owns an email domain, and which email application your company uses.
- **[Considerations for Sending Email from Salesforce](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.emailadmin_send_email_from_salesforce_considerations.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Before you send email from Salesforce, it’s important to ensure that your email gets to your recipient’s inbox. Make sure that you comply with commercial email regulations. Learn about common deliverability hurdles and how to protect your email reputation.
- **[Send Through External Email Services](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.emailadmin_sendthroughexternal_overview.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Send email from Salesforce using your Google or Microsoft accounts. Then, to recipients, emails look like they were sent from those accounts, and you see those emails in your Gmail or Outlook Sent Items folder.
- **[Send Through Salesforce](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.emailadmin_send_through_salesforce_overview.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Send email from Salesforce using the Salesforce servers. No need to integrate with an external email service. This a great approach if you’re using Salesforce Classic, need bounce management, or aren’t using Gmail™ or Office 365™ with Lightning Experience.
- **[Send Email Through Email Relay](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sales.emailadmin_email_relay_overview.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Use your company’s email server to send email from Salesforce. Storing email locally helps you meet compliance goals, and your users can see the emails they’ve sent from Salesforce in their company email Sent Items folder. Also, routing all email through your own email servers prevents the appearance of email spoofing by Salesforce. Email spoofing is the forging of email headers to make messages appear as if they came from someone other than the original sender.
