Every email SignSpry sends, and who gets it

The emails signers, senders and account holders receive from SignSpry, so you can tell people what to expect, and how to switch off the optional ones.

Knowing what lands in your signers' inboxes helps you warn them, and helps you spot a real SignSpry email from a fake one.

Who the email appears to come from

Emails to signers come from SignSpry's address but show your organisation's name as the sender. Reply-To is you, the person who sent the envelope, so when a signer hits Reply, the answer reaches you and not SignSpry. If you've added your logo, it appears in the email header.

Each signer's emails are in their own language when SignSpry has it, so your Hindi-speaking signer gets a Hindi invitation. See Signing languages.

To your signers

EmailWhenSubject starts
InvitationTheir turn comesYour signature is requested
ReminderAutomatic or Remind pending signersReminder: your signature is requested
A message from youYou reply to a signer's commentMessage about …
One-time codeThey open a link you protected with a code by emailYour verification code
Request to approve or signA signer brought them inYour approval is requested or Your signature is requested
The answerThe person they asked has repliedApproved, Signed or Declined
Completed copyEveryone has signedCompleted
Fresh copy linkThey asked for one from a used linkYour signed copy

The completed email carries a personal link to the sealed copy, good for 30 days, and the PDF itself is attached when it is small enough. CC recipients get it too. A link they've lost can be replaced from the page it opens, no more than once every ten minutes.

If you chose WhatsApp or SMS for a recipient, the same links also go by text. See WhatsApp and SMS for signers.

To you, the sender

EmailWhen
CompletedEvery signer has finished (with the sealed PDF when it fits)
QuestionA signer wrote you a comment
DeclinedA signer declined, with their reason
Paper requestedA US signer withdrew consent and asked for paper
ReassignedA signer handed their request to someone else
Helper added, UpdateA signer brought someone in, and they answered
ExpiredThe envelope ran out of time before everyone signed
Not sentA scheduled send couldn't go out; the envelope is back in your drafts
Monday summaryA short digest of last week; skipped on quiet weeks

You aren't emailed each time a signer opens or signs. The envelope page and the audit trail show that as it happens.

The Monday summary arrives from 8 am on Monday, in the time zone saved on your profile or organisation. Admins also get usage notices when the month's envelopes reach 80 % and 100 %.

Account emails

These go to the person concerned: the welcome email and sign-up verification code, password reset (one use, valid for one hour), a notice that your password changed, a notice when a backup code is used, the two-factor code by email, API-key-expiring warnings, "your export is ready", the account-deletion request, reminder and cancellation, invitations to join an organisation, support-ticket confirmations and replies, and invoices, receipts and billing notices.

What you can switch off

Under Email preferences you can turn off the Monday summary, the usage notices and product tips. See Email preferences. Product tips go to account holders only, never to signers, and carry an unsubscribe link.

Signing invitations, reminders, completed copies, receipts and tax invoices, security notices and account changes are always sent, because they are the service itself.

Keep your own record

Admins can add up to three addresses under Admin → Signing defaults → Compliance archive (blind copy every outbound email). Each email SignSpry sends for your organisation is blind-copied there, and recipients never see the addresses.

If a signer says nothing arrived

The envelope page shows a Not delivered warning when an invitation bounced, with Try sending again and Fix the address. See Email not arriving.
