   Hi team, we've now extended sending invoices via SMS to customers in the US. This is a free feature for all paid plans in AU and US, and can be used in addition to, or as an alternative to sending an invoice via email.

   See detail on how sending invoices via SMS works on Xero Central.

   Again, at this time there is no way to automate SMS messaging via Invoice reminders. We'll update you if there is any word of this here.

   Hi community, thanks for sharing your continued interest here. We appreciate the importance of having assurance that mail you send from Xero is being received, and that being able to send from your own company email would increase confidence in this process.

   I can confirm this idea has been continually reviewed by our product teams, and being able to send from your own company email is on their radar. Currently there are other priorities, and platform work that requires their attention, before they can consider this more deeply.

   When there is opportunity to pick this up, I will share any news with you all here.

   This is critical since email security is getting tighter. Just allow us to put in smtp parameters and use those.

   Hey community, we get the vying interest in this and how having a copy of the invoice sent within Xero would help when following up with debtors, or in disputes.

   As many of you have pointed out, the best option that exists within Xero for now is to use the 'send me a copy' checkbox. This gives you a solid record in your own email inbox to fall back on. While it takes a little setting up you could create a filter in your email inbox to route these to a specific folder for reference.

   Another smart tip as shared here could be setting up a dedicated email address to file these automatically, and keep things organised.

   Though not a solve for the body of the email that's being asked here, a change that we recently made for invoices is that all sent invoices will include the primary To: email address in History & Notes, including where an invoice is resent. Adding the ability to quickly confirm who an email was sent to.

   We know a full log of the email body is the ultimate goal for many of you, however we want to be transparent that this is not something we have planned in the next 12 months, however we're watching this idea sharply and will share any new updates right here if anything changes.
