Can I use my own email address as a Zendesk support address?

Yes, you can use your own external email address as a Zendesk support address. When you do this, the 'Sent To' and 'Reply From' fields will reflect your external email address.

This allows you to maintain your brand's identity while using Zendesk's support system. For more information on setting this up, you can refer to theZendesk documentation.
