RE: Problem: Track outgoing email from Web Outlook to MS CRM
Hi
I'm not sure if this is still a problem for you, but maybe it can help others. As mentioned correctly Dynamics CRM do not sync outgoing emails if they are not tagged in outlook and it's not an answer on a mail which is tagged already.
Actually this took me a while to figure that out as people somehow expect the email just are tagged or can be.
Never the less if you are creating a new email from f.x. OWA it's not synced with CRM and can not be. Whether you are using the server sync or not.
The way we have solved this is making a "transport rule" in exchange which is "BCC" all outgoing emails from our company to a specific mailbox on our exchange server. Let's call the mailbox "bccbox".
In this way all our outgoing mails become "incoming" to the "bccbox". You can now do whatever you need to do as all outgoing mails is tagged in Dynamic CRM because they are sent in to the new email box "bccbox" as well.
Hope this saves time for somebody.
Best regards
Peter
