One of our most common support questions has always been some variation of: "What's the difference between my newsletter email address and my account email address?" And honestly? There wasn't a great answer, because it was a product decision from the very early days of Buttondown that never really made sense.
With our revamped sending and reply handling, the picture is a lot simpler now. All outgoing emails come from one of two places:
- Your username at buttondown.email (the default)
- The email address you've configured in your custom sending domain settings, if you have one set up
There's no separate "newsletter email address" to worry about anymore.
So we've moved the email address field entirely to your sending domain settings, and hidden it for folks who aren't sending from a custom domain. If you don't have a custom domain, you don't need to think about it. If you do, it's right where you'd expect it to be.
Hopefully this makes everyone's lives slightly easier. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out or check out the docs.
