PATCH /v1/me/mailboxes/{mailbox_id}

Update a mailbox

Change a mailbox's daily send limit (1 to 500), turn warmup on or off, set its signature or sender name, or make it the default. Requires an editor over every brand of an account on Pro. Mailboxes belong to the account the key acts in, so a key restricted to one brand, or a member limited to some brands, is refused with 403 forbidden; an account under the plan answers 403 account_plan_required.

Path parameters

  • mailbox_id string required

    Mailbox id, from GET /v1/me/mailboxes.

Query parameters

  • dry_run boolean optional

    Preview the call without executing it. Runs auth, scope, eligibility and body validation, then returns 200 with a dry_run object reporting the request-unit and credit cost plus a non-consuming quota snapshot. Nothing is debited, reserved, dispatched or mutated. An invalid body still returns 422.

    default: false

Header parameters

  • Idempotency-Key string optional

    Optional. A retry with the same key and body within 24 hours replays the first response.

Request body

application/json required
Type: MailboxUpdate
Example payload
{
  "daily_send_limit": 40,
