Send outreach from your own Gmail or Outlook

Connect your mailbox, select the drafts you like and send them all at once, from your own address, with built-in pacing to protect your domain.

You can now connect Gmail or Outlook to Workbird and send outreach straight from your own address. Select the drafts you like, click Send all, and they go out from your mailbox.

How do I send from my own mailbox?

  1. Open Outreach and click Connect mailbox.
  2. Choose Gmail / Google Workspace or Outlook / Microsoft 365 and approve access.
  3. Review your drafts, tick the ones you want, and click Send all.

Replies land in your normal inbox, and each sent email is logged on the client’s timeline.

What permission does Workbird ask for?

Only permission to send email. Workbird never reads your inbox, and you can disconnect at any time from the Outreach page. Connection tokens are encrypted.

How does Workbird protect my sender reputation?

Sending a big batch at once looks like spam to inbox providers. So Workbird:

  • sends one email about every 40 seconds instead of all at once,
  • caps each mailbox at 50 emails a day,
  • skips contacts without an email address and anything already sent.

Why not send from a shared Workbird server?

Shared sending infrastructure is how agencies end up in spam folders: one bad sender hurts everyone’s deliverability. Sending from your own mailbox keeps your domain’s reputation in your hands, and replies come straight back to you.
