Professional email best practices

A domain-based email like you@yourdomain.ae makes your business look established and trustworthy to UAE customers. Here is how to get the most from your Dirham A Day email.

Set-up essentials:

• Give every team member their own mailbox and use clear role addresses (sales@, accounts@, support@).
• Use IMAP so mail syncs across all devices.
• Configure SPF, DKIM and DMARC so your messages reach inboxes, not spam.

Daily good habits:

• Use a professional signature with your name, company and contact details.
• Keep mailboxes tidy - archive old mail and empty Junk/Trash to stay under quota.
• Set an out-of-office autoresponder when away.
• Use strong, unique passwords and change them when staff leave.

Security:

• Be alert to phishing - never enter your mailbox password on a page you reached from a suspicious link.
• If a mailbox starts sending spam, change its password immediately and check for rogue forwarding rules.

For marketing: send newsletters through a dedicated platform, not standard mailboxes, to protect deliverability and comply with anti-spam rules. Following these practices keeps your communication reliable and professional. For a review of your email setup, our UAE team is available 24/7 - WhatsApp +971 58 553 6767 or support@dirhamaday.ae.
