We had a company change their email format. It would be useful to have a find/replace option to change all entries in one go rather than have to edit each contact individually.

Given current functionality, I would search for the old e-mail tag (@abc.org) and export the full list. Do a find and replace in excel making sure to keep the property ID column, then import the edited list back into HubSpot. HubSpot should update the existing records if you import including the contact ID.

Yes, find and replace within Hubspot would be nice.
