Email Labels
ProspectSafari will regularly check the inbox and sent box of your connected email account.
Any and all emails to or from any contact in your ProspectSafari workspace will be copied and added to your ProspectSafari timeline. Older emails sent or received before your email was connected or the contact email was added will not appear in the timeline.
In addition, emails added to the timeline will also be tagged with a label in your email account so that you can filter your mailbox as you see fit.
Here you can define the labels that are to be used and the behaviour of your email account.
