Email Accounts

Email accounts are the sending infrastructure for your campaigns. Pipelime uses Gmail OAuth to connect and send emails.

Connecting Gmail

1. Navigate to Settings -> Email Accounts
2. Click Connect Gmail Account
3. Authorize Pipelime via Google OAuth
4. The account appears with connecting status

Once connected, the account enters a warmup phase before being used for campaigns.

Warmup Phase

New email accounts go through a 14-day warmup schedule to build sender reputation:

During warmup, the account is marked as warming_up and automatically included in campaigns with reduced volume.

Daily Send Limits

Each account has a configurable daily send limit (default: 100). Pipelime tracks sends per day and pauses when the limit is reached.

Pipelime email-account update <account-id> --daily-limit 150

Health Status

Bounce Rate Monitoring

Pipelime monitors bounce rates per account. If the bounce rate exceeds 5% over a rolling 7-day window, the account is automatically paused.

Troubleshooting

Reconnecting

If an account becomes disconnected (expired OAuth token):

1. Go to Settings -> Email Accounts
2. Click Reconnect on the affected account
3. Re-authorize via Google OAuth

Token Refresh

Pipelime automatically refreshes OAuth tokens before they expire. If refresh fails, the account status changes to disconnected.
