We have some shared email address like [info@company.com](mailto:info@company.com) or [sales@company.com](mailto:sales@company.com). Can we forward them to Hubspot and then we manage the leads there? ---

To prevent unnecessary spam complaints, many email platforms restrict these email addresses on imports and don’t send email to reserved email addresses. - see **References** (bottom of thread) Even if an email platform currently allows the use of role-based email, continued support for role-based email isn’t guaranteed and is more likely to be deprecated with little or no warning. As a best practice, avoid using role-based email for sales &/or marketing applications. In HubSpot accounts that have access to conversations, any user in the account can use conversations as long as they are included as a team member on the inbox. Conversations allows multiple HubSpot users to share and manage an inbox. - see [Use conversations](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/conversations/how-to-use-conversations) - see [Emails sent to filtered view in conversations inbox](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/messages/why-is-my-email-showing-in-the-filtered-view-in-my-conversations-inbox) **References** (_this list is not exhaustive_) - [Limits on Role-based Addresses](https://mailchimp.com/help/limits-on-role-based-addresses/) (MailChimp) - [Role-Based and Reserved Email Addresses](https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=pardot_admin_role_based_email_address.htm&type=5) (Salesforce) - [Can subscribers using role-based email addresses be added to my list?](https://help.aweber.com/hc/en-us/articles/204029336-Can-subscribers-using-role-based-email-addresses-be-added-to-my-list-) (Aweber) Best, Frank Chief HubSpot Consultant * * * * * * ![hubspot-solutions-signature-mfrankjohnson-v05.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/2/7/27f33a2557b556a36da15be33d54ef60513d59ef.png) * * * [MFrankJohnson.com](https://www.mfrankjohnson.com/?utm_source=hs-forum) | [_Perfect HubSpot_ Series](https://mfrankjohnson.com/blogs/marketing-lab/tagged/_featured/?utm_source=hs-forum) | [Connect on LinkedIn](https://www.LinkedIn.com/in/mfjlabs) _ **Help find posts quickly … accept this solution now.** _ ---

Hi @jamesyip - yes this is possible and we actually do this ourselves. All of our outgoing emails are either from sales@ or support@ because of the way we operate as a team.. We then use our own HubSpot integration to log emails with the relevant contact in our HubSpot database. You can find us on the [HubSpot App Marketplace](https://app.hubspot.com/ecosystem/4980311/marketplace/apps/marketing/data-management/threads) if you want to try this for yourself. Good luck 😊
