Important Update on Salesforce Email Restrictions

With Salesforce’s most recent release, new restrictions were introduced around sending emails. Here's what you need to know:

• Email Alerts and Automation: If you have Email Alerts triggered by automation (like Flows, Process Builder, or Workflow Rule) and the email is set to come from the user who triggered it (e.g., a Community user), the email will fail unless the sender's email is listed as a Verified Organization-Wide Address. Check out this article for details on configuring Org-Wide email addresses.
• Older Email Actions: Email Actions created before this update may also fail if the Sender Type was not set, since this option didn't exist when they were created.
• Community Emails: If your Community settings include a default sender or owner with an unverified email address (often still set to the Liaison user), emails such as Forgot Password, Change Password, or Welcome Emails will not be delivered.
