Hi everyone, we understand how frustrating it is when important emails like invoices are filtered or blocked, and how this affects customer trust and timeliness of engagement with your transactional communications. Thank you for continuing to share examples and highlighting the impact this has on your business.
We’ve made meaningful progress towards enabling email sending from your own domain. While progress is taking longer than we’d like, we can confirm that substantial backend work is underway. This work spans multiple interdependent teams across Xero, and there are still important steps we need to work through before we can release the capability to customers reliably.
As we continue to develop this capability, there are a few questions that would help our product teams ensure we’re solving the majority of our users’ needs in this space, with a reliable and secure solution.
We’d really appreciate your input on the following questions, either on the idea here, or by reacting to our update and sharing your internal feedback;
Within your Xero account would you want multiple Users to be able to manage custom email domain settings, or just Administrators?
Does your domain have more than one mailbox associated with it?
Would you want to use the same domain across more than one Xero organisation?
Thanks in advance for your inputs to these questions, which will help validate user requirements for this feature.
We’ll provide another update here as soon as there is more progressive news to share.

This seems like a pretty poor excuse. As others have said, this is not a new technical idea, tons of other products do this. Set up the correct SPF and DKIM records and smtp services and you should be able to do it. To say it is too complicated is a pretty lame. If it is too complicated then why is everyone else able to do it?
Should be a standard option. Pretty disappointed that Xero can't handle this.
