A COUPLE OF NEW THINGS WE THINK YOU’LL LIKE
We’ve added a couple of new features that are small if not invisible, but that should make managing things easier.
New Comparative Report
The date range selector at the top left of your “comparative report” page allows you to select a date range, and to compare Daily Total Job Amount in that range to another one, so you can see data for different time periods in your reports.
CONFIGURING NETWALK’S EMAIL CHANNEL
There are two ways Netwalk can send transactional emails (books, packages, contracts, notifications, etc.):
1. by sending on behalf of you through its own smtp service.
Firstly type your e-mail address in the settings pane (1).
Then to permit Netwalk to send outgoing mail on your behalf, you must create or edit (if you already have one set up) an SPF (Sender Policy Framework) record to include a reference to Netwalk’s SMTP SERVER.
The SPF record declares which SMTP servers are allowed to send mail as though it originated from your domain. This helps prevent spammers from sending email appearing to come from your domain.To create or edit an SPF record, you need to edit your domain’s DNS settings.
Below is sample syntax
‘v=spf1 include:[your mail servers] include:sendgrid.net include:mailgun.org ~all’
If you don’t include Netwalk smtp servers in your SPF record some inbox might still refuse you.
2. by acting as a classic email client connected to your outbound mail server
Firstly type your e-mail address in the settings pane (1) then edit your SMTP’s parameters (2).
You don’t need to edit any domain’s DNS settings as Netwalk will use your email outbound server to send emails.

HOW TO KEEP NETWALK’S TRANSACTIONAL EMAILS OUT OF THE SPAM FOLDER
At Netwalk we are very serious about your emails deliverability.
Netwalk app uses Sendgrid.com to send transactional emails (books, packages, notifications, etc.) and they do all the heavy lifting for delivering emails but we need you to make sure your SPF record is setup properly:
As we send email on behalf of your email address you need to include Sendgrid smtp servers in the same SPF record of your domain. Below is sample syntax
‘v=spf1 include:[your mail servers] include:sendgrid.net ~all’
