E-mail activity not showing up in Leads but only Accounts/Contacts

Hi,

I am having trouble with the Activity Pane in Leads.  When I send an e-mail activity through Outlook it only syncs with Activities in Accounts/Contacts but not Leads.  In options, I have it currently set to track ALL e-mail messages.  The correct Lead is showing up under Related Records in sent e-mail but it´s not syncing with CRM Activities for some reason.  Can anyone help me please? :)

    Yes but when I send an e-mail to an existing Contact in CRM it also says NONE for Regarding.  But in that case, the e-mail activity IS showing up in Activities for Contacts.  I don´t want my salespeople to keep having to SET REGARDING for every lead.  It should be automatic.

    .................and here below you can see that Activity isn´t in Leads but as soon as I qualify to Contact/Account then it shows up there.

    The filters don´t have anything regarding Leads or E-mail Activity.  See picture above.  I am also the Administrator so I don´t see how this is a security issue.  I have read through all of the posts but nothing that I came across worked.  Could you please explain in more detail for me what could be causing this?  I can upload more images from our CRM if that helps.

    Gylfi,

    This might be possible because of filters added for synchronization or security issue..

    Here are more details

    hope this will help you to solve your problem..
