## How to enable respondent notifications

Next, toggle `Respondent notifications`.

You can toggle `Include a link to edit submission` to allow your respondents to revise their answers later on.

That's it! Respondents will now automatically receive an email notification upon submission containing a summary of their responses like the one below.

<Warning>
  Make sure you have an **Email Address** field in your form so that Fillout knows where to send the respondent email to.
</Warning>

## Tailor messages depending on the response

You can send a different message to a group of respondents depending on the answers they have provided in the form through **Custom emails**.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/fillout-005a867b/f5mAHX7l8nm93ZII/images/Screenshot2025-10-07at3.20.09PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=f5mAHX7l8nm93ZII&q=85&s=257a0b2801358da2f63a8a040a402533" alt="Screenshot 2025-10-07 at 3.20.09 PM.png" width="2547" height="544" data-path="images/Screenshot2025-10-07at3.20.09PM.png" />

Choose `Send email only if conditions match`. Check out this quick [guide](https://www.fillout.com/help/custom-emails#send-different-messages-based-on-responses).
