Absolutely not! Read the article or watch the video below to find out more:

Having been in the cold email space for a very long time, we are aware of the dangers that forwarding many 'daughter' accounts to one 'mother' / 'master' inbox can bring.

One of the easiest ways for Google or Microsoft to identify that you are sending cold emails is by forwarding all of your accounts to one. We maintain a 1:1 relationship between each of your email accounts and our API, there is absolutely no email forwarding going on whatsoever (how could we even do this with you connecting via oAuth, anyway? πŸ˜‰)

When planning how to best deliver HotHawk, we kept deliverability of our users emails as the number one priority. We explored many different ready-built email infrastructure such as EmailEngine API, but we decided against using a ready made solution just in case there was any future risk to our reputation.

With deliverability of our users front of mind, we decided to build a totally bespoke email client, from the ground up making us totally responsible for our own domain reputation.

This means that every mailbox you connect to us, whether via oAuth or IMAP/SMTP - we maintain a 1:1 relationship with that mailbox meaning that one mailbox connects directly with our API. We receive all emails from that mailbox and using our own advanced infrastructure, create your email threads and display all the data in a nice simple to use user interface that to you, just looks like a simple to use email client.
