1. Navigate to Advanced Settings

You can navigate to the Advanced Settings from the top right corner of your CRM platform. Once there, you can navigate to Email Configuration under the System category.

Once in the Email Configuration Settings, you’ll need to navigate to Mailboxes. This will come up with a list of all the mailboxes your admin has privileges of viewing and editing.

3. Find the Account of Interest

From the list you can either search or scroll until you’ve found the account that is not working as intended. You will want to click on the name which will make another window pop up.

The default settings should be:

  • Incoming Email: Server-side Synchronization or Email Router
