Limit the sending of emails from the guest user


With the Spring '23 release, Salesforce is updating its email sending policies for guest users. This update prevents organizations from sending emails from unverified email addresses in the guest user record. However, organizations that have a verified organization-wide email address will not be affected by this release update. In these organizations, the "sent from" email address defaults to the verified email address of the organization.


It is important to note that this update is only applicable to orgs that have a guest user in Lightning Experience or Salesforce Classic. When Salesforce enforces this update in Spring '23, emails sent from the org using a guest user's unverified email address will no longer be delivered.


To prepare for this update, organizations can review it by navigating to the Release Updates section in Setup and selecting "Restrict Emails Sent from the Guest User". By doing so, organizations can ensure that their guest users' email addresses are verified to prevent any disruptions in email delivery.
