So i like to see the mail conversations i have with my current contacts in the crm. So i would like to connect my email so i can sent mails from hubspot and see the reply’s in hubspot.  
But when i enable this function hubspot will import every email contact that i have contact with. How can i disable this but still use the mail function? It is importing mail contacts from suppliers, it services and invoice senders. My crm is becoming one big mess with this
