How to Change the Default Support Email Address
In BoldDesk, the default support email address is automatically configured to match your BoldDesk subdomain.
When you set up your BoldDesk account, you configure a subdomain within BoldDesk domain. The default support email address is then generated based on this subdomain. The format of the email address is support@[your-subdomain].bolddesk.com.

To change the default support email address, you need to modify your BoldDesk subdomain. Once you update it, the default support email address will automatically change.
