When you add the email channel to your bot, Kore.ai automatically generates the email address that the end-users can send an email for communications with your bot. By default, the email address syntax is < bot name >.kore@m.< kore host >. For example, assembla.kore@m.app-bots.kore.com. Optionally, you can click Change to add a custom name, such as MyBot.kore@m.app-bots.kore.com
