Understanding Email Deletion in Zendesk Sell

Discover why emails deleted outside of Zendesk Sell are also removed from Sell and how to manage your email data effectively.

Why are emails deleted outside of Zendesk Sell also removed from Sell?

Emails deleted outside of Zendesk Sell are also removed from Sell because the email integration mirrors your external email account. This means any changes, like deletions, made in your email client will reflect in Sell.

If you can't find an email in Sell, check your external email client to see if it was deleted there. This mirroring ensures that your email data remains consistent across platforms, but it also means you need to be cautious about deleting important emails outside of Sell.
