How does your team handle the duplication of emails in Pipedrive when several users are CC'd on a single email? We are seeing multiple copies of the same email in  the activity history which is really messy and makes filtering a lot of information much more challenging. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    Thanks @Ines. I did reach out them before posting out here. They told me there was no way to prevent this.

    Hi @Mindy Aufderheide and @ines.

    We suffer the same pain.

    We work with construct companies as our clients. This companies attend several projects. Our created deals on PD are related to the projects of our clients.

    Some people inside the construct company are prospecting many projects.

    Today, as we see, PD relate all e-mails of a deal with the person we point first as being the client. 

    In case this person have more than one deal, the mess is created.

    It would be much easier if we could do it manually. If manually was an option.

    Regards,

    Hi @Andrey Henke , thank you for your input!

    You can change your email settings in Email Sync > Automatic linking to deals > Link emails manually only.

     @Mindy Aufderheide  maybe this tip can help you too. 🙏
