Which tracking domain a mailbox's links use

Open and click links from every mailbox use your workspace's tracking domain (Settings → Tracking), or the shared default. Each mailbox's General tab shows which one and can check its CNAME; there is no per-mailbox tracking setting.

Where: Mailboxes → open a mailbox → General tab → "Tracking Domain" → "Check Status"; change it under Settings → Tracking → "Custom tracking domain"

How to do it

  1. Open the mailbox → General tab → Tracking Domain. "Links use" shows the domain its open and click links go through.
  2. On the shared default it reads "Shared default" — nothing to set up.
  3. With your own domain it shows the CNAME record to add, pointing to fltrk.com (click it to copy). Click "Check Status" to look it up now: "CNAME verified", or "CNAME not found" / "CNAME points to … — expected fltrk.com".
  4. To use a different domain, click "Change in Settings" (Settings → Tracking). The change applies to every mailbox in the workspace.

Good to know

  • One tracking domain covers every mailbox in the workspace; there is no per-mailbox tracking field or switch.
  • A mailbox imported with its own tracking domain (a custom_tracking_domain, custom_tracking_url or tracking_domain CSV column, or one set through Zapmail) keeps it on record and the page notes it, but links from MailFleet don't use it.
  • Hostnames saved on mailboxes are still added to the list of domains MailFleet will issue certificates for, alongside the workspace setting.
  • If Settings → Tracking holds something that isn't a hostname, links fall back to the shared domain and the page says so.
  • Check Status looks the CNAME up fresh every time; DNS changes can take a while to show up.
  • Ready to Send on the mailbox's Overview counts tracking as passing on the shared default, or once the custom domain's CNAME points to fltrk.com.
