This includes Client emails that have been imported from your Outlook Inbox, ready for you to review before making them available to all FYI users across your practice.

By default, internal emails and non-client emails are excluded. Refer to Email AutoFile Settings and Exclusions.

When you file or delete an email, it will be cleared from your In Tray.
