The detail most guides miss

Incoming emails cost money too

HighLevel’s own wording: “All incoming and outgoing emails (To, CC, and BCC) will incur charges.”

Replies

Every reply that lands in Conversations is billed like a send.

CC and BCC

Each address on To, CC and BCC is charged.

Spam and forwards

Forwarded mail is billed at the sending rate, so inbound spam costs money too.

Deliverability

Why GoHighLevel emails go to spam, and how to fix it

Cheap sending is useless if it lands in junk. The fixes are mostly one-time setup.

  1. Step 1

    Authenticate your domain

    Add SPF, DKIM and DMARC records for your sending domain. GoHighLevel walks you through it.

  2. Step 2

    Warm up slowly

    Follow the 7-day ramp. Start with your most engaged contacts.

  3. Step 3

    Clean your list

    Remove bounces and unengaged contacts; validate old lists first.

  4. Step 4

    Write like a person

    Plain, relevant emails with few images and links beat heavy templates.

What users report

Common GoHighLevel email problems, and the fixes

From HighLevel’s own feature-request board, where users post problems publicly.

  • “My LC emails land in Outlook junk”

    Users report Microsoft/Outlook inboxes junking LC Email messages, needing support to adjust settings.

    Fix Authenticate SPF, DKIM and DMARC, warm up, and consider a dedicated IP once your volume justifies it.

    Source: HighLevel ideas board: “LC emails ending up in junk”

  • “The shared IP got blacklisted”

    Users report shared sending IPs landing on blacklists, which affects everyone sending from them.

    Fix A dedicated IP ($59/month) isolates your reputation, but only helps if you send steady volume.

    Source: HighLevel ideas board: dedicated IP request

  • “Why do I have to send from a subdomain?”

    One of the most-voted LC Email requests: users dislike the required sending subdomain.

    Fix Use a clean subdomain (like mail.yourdomain.com) and authenticate it fully; it protects your main domain’s reputation.

    Source: HighLevel ideas board: subdomain request

  • “Inbound spam is hurting deliverability”

    Users report forwarded spam damaging sending reputation and adding cost (incoming email is billed).

    Fix Avoid forwarding catch-all inboxes into GoHighLevel; forward only real customer mail.

Expert take

Is GoHighLevel email worth using?

GoHighLevel email pricing FAQ

How much does GoHighLevel charge for email?
$0.675 per 1,000 emails through LC Email, HighLevel’s built-in sending service. The rate is the same on every plan.
Are incoming emails charged in GoHighLevel?
Yes. HighLevel’s LC Email article says: “All incoming and outgoing emails (To, CC, and BCC) will incur charges.” Replies and forwarded emails count too.

How many emails can I send per day?
New senders ramp up over 7 days (250, 500, 1,000, 2,500, 5,000, 7,500, 10,000), then up to 25,000/day on a shared domain or 550,000/day on a dedicated domain.
Why are my GoHighLevel emails going to spam?
Usually an unauthenticated sending domain (missing SPF, DKIM or DMARC), sending to a cold or unengaged list, or a new domain that wasn’t warmed up. Some users also report shared-IP reputation problems with LC Email.
Do I need Mailgun with GoHighLevel?
No. LC Email is HighLevel’s built-in sending service and is the default for new accounts. You can connect your own SMTP provider instead if you prefer.
Can I get a dedicated IP?
Yes, as an add-on: $59/month per IP, on Unlimited and Agency Pro only.
Can I rebill email costs to clients?
Yes. HighLevel’s pricing page lists email rebilling at cost on Unlimited and with markup on Agency Pro. Note: the LC Email help article describes rebilling as a Pro-plan feature, so confirm in your account.
Is GoHighLevel email cheaper than Mailchimp?
For sending volume, usually yes: you pay per email rather than per contact, and contacts are unlimited on every plan. But you also pay the GoHighLevel plan itself.
