What Can You Do with the Email Inbox?

  • See All Your Emails: Access your inbox without ever leaving Pipeline CRM.
  • Automatic Logging: Every conversation with your contacts is saved to their profile—no extra clicks required.
  • Add Contacts Instantly: Got an email from someone new? Add them as a contact with just one click.
  • Full Email Power: Compose, reply, forward, format, and attach files—just like your usual email client.
  • Stay Organized: Archive less important emails or ignore senders to keep your inbox focused.
  • Get the Big Picture: See deals and tasks related to each contact right next to their emails.
Pipeline works seamlessly with Gmail and cloud-based Microsoft Exchange, allowing actions in Pipeline to sync with your regular inbox and vice versa.

How to Access Your Pipeline Email Inbox
  1. Enable Email Sync.
  2. After syncing, your emails will appear in Pipeline.
  3. Activity Logging: Emails from known contacts will log the last 30 days of conversations to their profile pages. New emails log automatically.
  4. Real-Time Notifications: Get in-app notifications for new emails, so you never miss a message.

Composing and Sending Emails
You can compose emails from:
  • Email tab (click +Compose Email button in the top right).
  • A contact’s profile page (click the contacts email address).
  • The list view (select multiple contacts to send a bulk email).

Steps to Compose from Inbox:

  1. Click Compose Email.
  2. Start typing to auto-suggest recipients from your contact list.
  3. Format your message, attach files, add links, and use your custom signature.
  • Automatic Logging: Sent emails are logged as Activities on contact profiles.
  • Tip: Add [email protected] in the BCC field to automatically create new contacts from email recipients.
Note: Emails are sent via the primary email address set in your profile.

Inbox Management: Archiving & Ignoring
  • Archiving:
    • Archive in Pipeline, and it’s archived in your email client (and vice versa).
    • Read status syncs across both systems.
    • Archived or deleted messages remain logged as Activities.
  • Ignoring Senders:
    • Use this to filter out personal or non-sales emails.
    • Ignored emails are archived in Pipeline and don’t show in your Pipeline Inbox, but still appear in your main email client.

Adding New Contacts

  • If you receive an email from someone not in Pipeline, add them directly from the Inbox or when replying.
  • Once added, all your previous emails with them appear as Activities on their profile page.

Deal Insights for Multi-Deal Contacts

  • If a contact is linked to multiple deals, use the dropdown in the email to select which deal the message relates to.
  • This way, each email stays tied to the right deal for context and tracking.
