Gmail can forward emails to some xxxxxx@forward.hubspot.com address if Hubspot provides a way to receive in Inbox or elsewhere the verification email sent by Gmail.
Currently all emails sent to the forwarding email address end nowhere so this Gmail usefull feature can't be used because the verification code can't be provided back in Gmail.
The purpose is to mirror automatically in Hubspot all emails received in the business email account including the first one received from an unknown source.
Yes, PLEASE, add a feature where you can forward email from Gmail into HubSpot. While I definitely want people to respond to my email "marketing," I also want them to reach out without my having to reach out first--this means that I am doing something right.
Unfortunately, HubSpot's "advertising" led me to believe that I would receive "all" contact activity--unfortunately, this is just not true if I cannot receive unsolicitied emails into HubSpot. 😞
I cannot imagine that it would be that hard to allow a verification code into HubSpot. I even opened a Contact with my xxxxxx@forward.hubspot.com address hoping that it would appear; unfortunately, it did not. Again, it should be a simple fix and would a great selling point. For now, it would appear that after two days of trying to fix this issue (even support didn't realize that it didn't work without their researching). I will have to look elsewhere? UGH!
Please, please fix asap. Really, it shouldn't be that hard. Thanks!
