It will automatically detect the attachments, add receivers to the Task Team and so on!
For example, you can:

- You can transform the emails from your clients directly into 5pm tasks by just forwarding them to task.yourdomain@5pmweb.com.
Even more - you can also add Messages and Progress Notes directly from email!
