Beamery is introducing Enterprise Email Connector, a new option that lets you send candidate-facing emails from Beamery through your own SMTP infrastructure rather than Beamery's default email provider. This article explains what the feature does, who it is for, the benefits, and how it will work at a high level.
This feature is for specific cases where customers have DLP requirements that require this method. It is not functionally different to our current email sending approach. If you believe this applies to your business, please engage your CSM to see if Enterprise Email Connector is right for you. Please note there are costs associated with this product.
What is Enterprise Email Connector Relay?
By default, Beamery sends outbound emails (campaigns, bulk messages, one-to-one messages) through our managed email infrastructure. With Enterprise Email Connector, you can configure Beamery to route those emails through your organization's own SMTP relay.
Once enabled, the flow is: Beamery → Your SMTP Relay → Recipient
Your email never leaves your controlled infrastructure before delivery, so it can be inspected, logged, and governed by the same policies as any other corporate email.
Who is This For?
Enterprise Email Connector is designed for organizations with strict email governance requirements, including:
- Regulated industries (financial services, healthcare, public sector) that must keep email traffic inside their own boundary.
- Security and compliance teams that require Data Loss Prevention (DLP) scanning, legal hold, or full archival of outbound communications.
- Customers with data residency obligations that prevent routing email through third-party delivery services.
- Customers whose InfoSec policies do not permit Beamery's default email provider.
If your team is currently satisfied using Beamery's managed email infrastructure, no action is needed and nothing changes for you.
Key Benefits
- Full control of outbound emails. Every message passes through your own relay, so your existing DLP, archival, monitoring, and legal hold rules apply automatically.
- Compliance without compromise. Keep candidate communications within your regulatory boundary while still using Beamery for sourcing, nurturing, and campaign automation.
- Unblock InfoSec approval. Removes a common procurement and security objection for enterprise rollouts.
- Full campaign analytics retained (see below). Opens, clicks and unsubscribe metrics all fully retained.
Campaign Analytics are Fully Supported
This is one of the most important parts of the feature, and a key difference from Beamery's previous email relay offering. When you use Enterprise Email Connector, Beamery will continue to capture the email engagement events that power campaign reporting, including:
- Opened to measure engagement and campaign effectiveness
- Clicked to measure click-through rates and CTA performance
- Unsubscribed for preference and compliance management
This means your marketing, sourcing, and compliance teams keep full visibility of campaign performance, and engagement metrics, exactly as they do today on Beamery's default email infrastructure.
How Replies are Handled
When emails are sent through your SMTP relay, candidate replies are still captured against the right contact and thread in Beamery automatically.
- Outbound email is sent from your SMTP infrastructure
- The reply-to address remains a Beamery-managed service
- Replies are parsed and stored against the candidate and campaign in Beamery, just as they are today
No additional configuration is needed for reply capture.
