This tool costs nothing to call.

An example

Send at most 40 emails a day from my Gmail, I don't want Google flagging it.

The example business is Halverson Cycle & Repair, a bike shop with a repair workshop in Portland, Oregon. The reply is the one the tool really gives.

Use it when

When the owner wants a mailbox to send more or less, or to stop using it.

What it does

Change a connected mailbox: the name people see (sender_name), its daily limit (1 to 200 emails in any 24 hours, shared by every campaign that sends from it), pause or resume its sending, or disconnect it (Conecto forgets its password). A campaign none of whose mailboxes can send pauses and tells you; resume it once a mailbox can send again. Its settings and password change only on a new connect link (outreach_connect_mailbox).

What comes back

mailbox, as outreach_mailboxes shows it. Every reply also carries cost_usd and balance_usd.

Inputs
