How to Set Up Automatic Email Logging with Mail Converter (CRM)

Before You Begin

Ensure you have:

  • Admin or appropriate permissions to access CRM Settings

  • Your email account is connected to Dazos

  • Contact, Lead, or Account records with email addresses in your database

Steps

  1. Navigate to Mail Converter Settings
    Go to CRM Settings β†’ Other Settings and locate the Mail Converter tool.


    ​

  2. Configure Email Folders
    Select which email folders you want the Mail Converter to scan (typically Inbox and Sent Items).

  3. Set Up Mail Converter Rules
    Configure additional actions the Mail Converter should take when processing emails beyond the basic email attachment to matching CRM records.

  4. Save Configuration
    Save your settings to activate the automatic email scanning.

Verification / Expected Result

Once configured, the Mail Converter will:

  • Automatically scan your specified email folders every 15 minutes

  • Match email addresses against your Dazos database

You should see emails appearing as activities on matching records without manual intervention.
