When you click it, a CRM activity record opens with an exact copy of your email. Aptean CRM searches for a match on the email address(es) in your email. If a match is found, the Activity record is connected to the correct Contact/Company record in Aptean CRM. You can save and close the Activity record to log it in Aptean CRM.
