@kevinleesmith sorry the bot wasn’t playing nice 🙂 To use the Email app you will need to enter an email account. It works as an Email client. That being said, you will need to configure your SPF according to the settings of the server the account is on. Emails are sent through that (your own) server. As the emails are not sent by Make you do not have to add Make to your SPF records. ---

P.S. If you want to check your SPF/DMARC settings, [Domain Health Check - Online Domain Tools - Blacklist, Email, Website, DNS - MxToolBox](https://mxtoolbox.com/emailhealth) is a good place to start and check for issues. ---

> [@kevinleesmith](#): > > gration my emails are getting blocked becasue I do not have [make.com](http://make.com) listed in the the bot is a new addition “it’s still learning” 🤓 (@Michaela-Inactive FYI!) What email module are you using? Just to echo what @Arnoud_WorkNinjas said - Make doesn’t send emails… it sends the instruction for your email provider to send the email. WHere have you migrated from? ---

yeah thanks IanM - it was me being stupid! My SPF problem turned out to be nothing to do with make as you and Ian say, it was caused by 1and1/ionos in that their dashboard told me the domain was using their name servers when in fact they were using wix name servers! (that didnt have an spf record for 1and1 - which is where the MX records point to) That sent me down a rabbit hole. My final problem that then caused me to post the Q here was that becasue 1and1 blocked that email account and forced me to change the password, i forgot to change the password in the make connection, hence i got a load of errors again - which i (stupidly) assumed was the same problem. Anyway - all sorted now (fingers crossed!) ---

Just quickly jumping in to say thanks so much for the tag @IainM. We’ve only been testing this ‘bot’ for a couple of days with the intention of seeing how it reacts to the community and continuously improving the replies. The main goal here is to train the bot so that it helps folks ask questions with as many details and information as possible. Thanks to that, the community can then better jump in and lend a helping hand because we know the full story. We 100% recognize that there’s a lot of progress to be made but please bear with us. We’re doing this to ultimately make the community experience smoother. Thanks for everyone’s involvement 🙏 > [@mega Community Bot Testing](https://community.make.com/t/community-bot-testing/7187): > > Hey Makers waveI just want to let you know that we plan to start testing a Bot that we built using OpenAI in order to help make the community a more structured place nerd_faceman_detective A couple of days ago, our first efforts were instantly noticed by @IainM over here: [Maker "bot" within this forum](https://community.make.com/t/maker-bot-within-this-forum/6997).
