Importing From Your ESP

Send an email to your Parcel workspace from anywhere

Importing an email is as easy as sending an email. There are a few ways you can import an email; you can import to your workspace or import directly to a file.

Import to Workspace

Each workspace has its own import address. To import to your workspace, click "Copy Import Email Address" from the Parcel menu dropdown in the sidebar or find it in Workspace Settings. Then send your email to this address.

After import, you can find the email (including HTML, Text, and AMP) in the sidebar folder titled "Imported from Inbound Email." The newly created email in Parcel will inherit your sent email's subject as it's name, with a timestamp appended.

You can also click "Import from your ESP" when creating a new email. This also copies the email address that you can send to.

There are three options - start from scratch, import from your ESP or templates.
