# Set Up Email

In this step, we will use the [Catalyst Cloud Scale](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/cloud-scale/getting-started/introduction/) component, [Mail](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/cloud-scale/help/mail/introduction/), to set up the sender email address. This is the address from where the payslips will be emailed to various employees.

To configure the sender's email address:

1. Click the **Catalyst Cloud Scale** icon to access the *Cloud Scale* service, and click **Start Exploring**.
