Email Quotas

Google imposes daily email sending limits for add-ons:

Account TypeDaily Limit
Personal Gmail (@gmail.com)100 emails/day
Google Workspace1,500 emails/day

Monitoring Usage

View your current quota usage in SettingsQuota:

  • Emails sent today: current count
  • Daily limit: your account's maximum
  • Resets at: when the counter resets (midnight Pacific Time)
caution

When the daily quota is exhausted, Form Mailer queues remaining emails and sends them the next day. Critical notifications may be delayed.

Add a consistent footer to all emails sent by Form Mailer:

  1. Go to SettingsFooter
  2. Enter your footer text or HTML
  3. This is appended to every email (respondent and owner)

Common footer content:

  • Company contact info
  • Unsubscribe/opt-out notice
  • Privacy policy link

Per-Form vs Global Settings

  • Per-form settings are configured in each form's Form Mailer sidebar
  • Global settings (like sender name and default footer) apply to all forms and are configured in Form MailerGlobal Settings

Per-form settings override global settings when both are configured.

Data & Privacy

  • Form Mailer processes form responses only when a submission triggers an email
  • No form data is stored on external servers — emails are sent directly via Gmail
  • You can revoke Form Mailer's access at any time in your Google Account permissions
