Add an Account Email Address

Make a POST call to the /account/emails endpoint to add a new email address to the Constant Contact account associated with your access token. This method also automatically sends a confirmation email to the new email address.

When you Create an Email Campaign, you must use a confirmed email address in the from_email and reply_to_email properties. Use POST /account/emails to add a new email address to an account and send a confirmation email. Use GET /account/emails to view all account email addresses and their current status.

If the email address you are attempting to add already exists in the account, this method returns a 409 conflict error.
