Email Setup

GrahamScreener uses three custom email addresses on grahamscreener.com, routed via Cloudflare Email Routing and sent via Resend.

Email Addresses

Address	Direction	Purpose
alerts@grahamscreener.com	Outbound	Price alert notifications (sent via Resend)
hello@grahamscreener.com	Inbound	User support, general enquiries
partnerships@grahamscreener.com	Inbound + Outbound	Sponsor and partnership communication

Cloudflare Email Routing (Inbound)

Cloudflare Email Routing forwards incoming emails to your personal inbox at zero cost.

Setup: Cloudflare Email Routing docs

1. Add grahamscreener.com to Cloudflare (if not already)
2. Go to Email → Email Routing → Routes
3. Create 3 routing rules:

Catch address	Forward to
hello@grahamscreener.com	Your personal email
partnerships@grahamscreener.com	Your personal email
alerts@grahamscreener.com	Your personal email (optional — for monitoring bounces)

Cloudflare automatically adds the required MX and TXT records to your DNS.

Resend (Outbound)

Resend handles outbound transactional email (price alerts). See Resend docs.

Setup:

1. Sign up at resend.com
2. Go to Domains → Add Domain → enter grahamscreener.com
3. Resend provides 3 DNS records to add in Cloudflare:

Type	Name	Value	Purpose
TXT	resend._domainkey	p=MIGf...	DKIM signing
TXT	@ or grahamscreener.com	v=spf1 include:amazonses.com ~all	SPF
MX	send.grahamscreener.com	feedback-smtp.us-east-1.amazonses.com	Bounce handling

4. Click Verify in Resend dashboard once records propagate (usually < 5 minutes)
5. Create an API key: API Keys → Create API Key
6. Set env vars:

RESEND_API_KEY=re_xxxxx
ALERT_FROM_EMAIL=alerts@grahamscreener.com
ALERT_REPLY_TO=hello@grahamscreener.com

Quick start (no DNS): Use ALERT_FROM_EMAIL=onboarding@resend.dev to send alerts from Resend's shared address. Works immediately, no DNS setup needed. Fine for testing and personal use.

Gmail "Send mail as" (Optional)

To reply to partnerships@grahamscreener.com emails from Gmail:

1. In Gmail: Settings → Accounts → Send mail as → Add another email address
2. Enter partnerships@grahamscreener.com
3. For SMTP, use Resend's SMTP credentials:
   • Server: smtp.resend.com
   • Port: 465 (SSL)
   • Username: resend
   • Password: your Resend API key (re_xxxxx)
4. Gmail sends a verification email — check your forwarded inbox and click the link

This lets you compose and reply from partnerships@grahamscreener.com directly in Gmail.

Environment Variables

Variable	Default	Description
RESEND_API_KEY	—	Resend API key (required for alerts)
ALERT_FROM_EMAIL	alerts@grahamscreener.com	Sender address on alert emails
ALERT_REPLY_TO	hello@grahamscreener.com	Reply-To header on alert emails

See .env.example in the project root for all env vars.
