Sending outbound emails from Zoho Desk
Sending Outbound Emails
Sending outbound emails is no different from creating a ticket manually in Zoho Desk. Just enter the ticket details you usually do and click Send as Email at the bottom of the "Add Ticket" window.
Here is how you do it:
- From the Tickets module, hit the
sign located in the top toolbar.
- Specify the appropriate Department (if you've more than one), where the email should be added as a ticket.
Note: The department you select here should be enabled for sending emails. - Enter the recipient's Contact Name.
You can select from the suggested contacts if the recipient is an existing user.
- Enter the recipient's Account Name.
The account name field is auto-filled when you've chosen, a suggested contact that has an account associated with it.
- Enter the recipient's Email Address.
The email and phone fields are auto-filled when you've chosen, a suggested contact that has these details.
- Enter the Subject and Description of the email.
Note: Description is mandatory as it is used as the email body. - Enter other ticket properties that add context to the outbound email.
- Upload attachments from your desktop or cloud storage to be sent over the email.
- Click Send as Email at the bottom of the page.
The Send as Email window slides open from the right. - On the Send as Email window, do the following:
- Enter CC recipients in CC-field.
The CC recipients will receive a copy of the email and all other recipients will see their email address. - Uncheck the Add Ticket ID to email's subject option if you don't want to append the Ticket ID to the subject line of the outgoing email.
- Review the email body and make any necessary changes.
- Click Submit and Send.

The email will be sent, and the ticket is created immediately.
Notes:
- The email recipients won't receive an acknowledgment that the ticket has been created.
- Your department's signature will be added to the emails unless you remove it from the email body.
- You can add a maximum of 20 CC recipients to an outbound email.
