Sender setup

This document explains how to create and manage sender profiles in Engage Studio. Sender profiles define the sender identity and unsubscribe settings used in your marketing emails. Configuring this correctly ensures brand consistency, compliance with email standards, and improved deliverability.

Accessing Sender Profiles

  1. From the left navigation menu in Engage Studio, click Sending Configurations.

  2. Select the Sender Profiles tab.

  3. Click Create new to open the sender profile setup form.

Creating a Sender Profile

The sender profile creation wizard includes two main tabs:

1. Details Tab – Sender Identity

FieldDescription

From display nameThe name shown in the recipient's inbox
Default reply-to addressOptional address for replies
Default reply-to display nameOptional name shown for the reply-to field

2. Unsubscribe Header Tab – Compliance Settings

To support List-Unsubscribe features and remain compliant with global email regulations (e.g., CAN-SPAM, GDPR), configure unsubscribe settings here. You have three options:

When you select this option:

  • Treasure Data automatically adds RFC 8058-compliant headers to all emails
  • Unsubscribe requests are processed through TD's secure infrastructure
  • All unsubscribe events are recorded in the subscription_events table
  • Supports both HTTPS POST and mailto methods for maximum compatibility

Sender Profile Setup

Template Variables:

When using TD Managed Unsubscribe, you can use these variables in your email templates:

  • {{sender.unsubscribe_url}} - Automatically resolves to your landing page with a postTo parameter
  • {{sender.unsubscribe_email}} - Resolves to TD's managed unsubscribe email address
  • {{sender.unsubscribe_email_subject}} - Subject line for mailto unsubscribe (contains the secure token)

Example Usage for Mailto Unsubscribe:

To enable unsubscribe via email, include the token in the email subject line:

<a href="mailto:{{sender.unsubscribe_email}}?subject={{sender.unsubscribe_email_subject}}">
  Unsubscribe via email
</a>

Token Expiration:

  • Unsubscribe links remain valid for 60 days after the email is sent
  • After expiration, users should contact support or use an alternative method

For detailed implementation guidance, see One-Click Unsubscribe Management.

This option allows you to use your own custom unsubscribe infrastructure.

FieldDescription
URLHTTPS link to your unsubscribe landing page. Accessible in the content editor via {{sender.unsubscribe_url}}. Example: https://your_unsubscribe_url/unsubscribe.html?email={{profile.email | url_encode }}
Mail-to emailEmail address that receives unsubscribe requests when HTTP fails. Accessible in the content editor via {{sender.unsubscribe_email}}.
Mail-to subjectOptional subject line for the unsubscribe email.

You can enable or disable one-click unsubscribe functionality via toggle. When enabled, it adds List-Unsubscribe headers to your email.

Managing Sender Profiles

Once sender profiles are created:

  • You can edit or delete them from the Sender Profiles list view.

  • Sender profiles cannot be deleted if they are linked to active campaigns.

  • Multiple profiles can be created per domain to support different business units or brands.
