Save Emails to Contacts Automatically with Microsoft 365 (server)

Save Emails Related to Your eWay-CRM Contacts Automatically.

Warning
To use synchronization of emails with Microsoft 365, your eWay-CRM must run in our cloud. If you use eWay-CRM on-premises, this feature will not be available.
This feature stores emails in sync with Microsoft 365 so you don’t have to have Outlook running. It works even during your vacation.

    Most of the companies like to save emails sent and received from contacts and companies but not users, as they don’t like internal communications to be available to everybody.

     

  7. The last setting to pay attention to is Ignored Domains which you can use if you want to make sure that internal communications are not shared. This feature allows you to restrict your internal domain from being saved completely.
