Do You Want to Save Emails to eWay-CRM From Non-Microsoft Inboxes Like Gmail or Hotmail? Here's the Hack

Published 26. 2. 2025

Isn’t it just Outlook you use? But would like to have all your emails in eWay-CRM? Even those from Gmail or Hotmail? We know the way to easily achieve this.

As you know, eWay-CRM Online can automatically track emails server-side. Through a single private Microsoft 365 account.

However, many of us use multiple email clients, and often, these are outside of Microsoft 365: Gmail, Hotmail, or others.

So how to get all of them, sent and received emails, into eWay-CRM? By forwarding them.

Each email client has their own guide, on how to set the automatic forwarding of emails. Always search for the guides on their official websites. Google for example covers this here.

 

What’s Worth Knowing

What should you know about email forwarding? Copies of emails you forward stay in the inbox to which they were originally sent.

If you wish the forwarded emails to be deleted - make sure no duplicates will be created - just add an action that will delete the messages. Then, you’ll find these emails in the folder Deleted Items or Trash or synonymous.

Thanks to this tip, you won’t have to check old inboxes daily. From now on, you’ll have everything right in your eWay-CRM and you’ll be able to process all emails with the same amount of focus and detail.

Not only will communication with your clients get better, but you’ll also be more effective - because you won’t spend time going back and forth. From inbox to CRM.
