How can I integrate Email by Zapier with SMTP by Zapier?
To integrate Email by Zapier with SMTP by Zapier, you'll need to set up a Zap that connects the two apps. First, choose Email by Zapier as the trigger app and select the specific email trigger event you want to use, such as 'New Inbound Email'. Then, add SMTP by Zapier as the action app and select an action like 'Send Email'. This allows you to automate sending emails via SMTP whenever your specified trigger in Email by Zapier is activated.
What are some common triggers available in Email by Zapier for integration?

How do error handling processes work when integrating these two services?
Our platform provides built-in error handling features. If a step fails during execution - such as if an email can't be sent through SMTP due to incorrect credentials - you'll receive notifications so adjustments can be made quickly.
What kinds of actions can be performed using SMTP once triggered by an event in Email by Zapier?
Once triggered by an event from Email by Zapier (such as receiving a new email), actions like sending out automated replies or forwarding details via formatted SMS messages through other integrated tools can be set up with SMTP.
