# Manual emails

Manual emails can be sent with the help of the **Email** button right from the Jira issue. Email templates, and Outgoing Mail Connections settings don't need to be set each time. However, if the default settings are not enough, you can define manual email configuration sets that override the defaults and allow you to fully customize how you want to send emails manually.&#x20;

For more information about setting up an Outgoing Mail Connection, see [Outgoing Mail Connections](/email-this-issue/administration/email-this-issue-for-jira-cloud-smtp-servers.md).

For more information about customizing default settings, see [Configuring manual emails](/email-this-issue/outgoing-emails/manual-emails/email-this-issue-for-jira-cloud-manual-email-configuration.md).&#x20;

To learn more about the default procedure of sending them, see [Sending manual emails](/email-this-issue/outgoing-emails/manual-emails/email-this-issue-for-jira-cloud-the-email-button-and-the-email-screen.md).
