[Personal Email Accounts] Fetch only email headers (not body)

[183p]

Dear all,

I need to connect a personal email account to EspoCrm. This account have around 10Gb of email and I don't want those email replicated not only on mail server but also stored on EspoCRM server.

How I can setup system to fetch only email headers, without body, so system can associate to all contacts inside EspoCRM, avoiding to keep server space?

I don't see any specific feature, but I tried a little workaround: in "Inbound Emails" > " Email Max Size (Mb)", I set that value to "0". System should not download the body of the email: is it okay to do this?

Thank's a lot for your patience

nah it doesn't work that way. i don't think there is a workaround for this to my knowledge.

Hi 183p,

There is the possibility to fetch emails without body in two ways:

1. via Formula
Go to Administration -> Entity Manager -> Email -> Formula and insert the lines:
body = NULL;
bodyPlain = NULL;



2. via Workflow



Also, you can specify conditions, e.g. "From" field.
