I am upvoting this idea, with this twist: We want to be able to turn OFF the auto-creation of new contacts to prevent clutter in the CRM. We need to be able to log the email activity with our existing sales leads, without adding “noise” to the database for every co-worker, supplier, shipping agency, etc. that gets included on an email string. All the new, unwanted contacts added to the CRM make it hard to track the ones we NEED to track.
HubSpot product management team, this is a very important feature for sales teams. Thanks.
