What and Why?

You may want to send emails to your customers if and when something happens in Memberstack. These messages may include welcome emails to new signups, transactional emails, dunning emails, marketing emails, admin emails, notification emails, etc. Memberstack doesn't have this feature built in (YET), so you'll need to use a 3rd-party mailing service. This tutorial will show you how to send different types of emails.
