When you connect an email to an BRIX account, fifty most recent emails from your mailbox will be uploaded to the Email workspace. After that, the email address will be synchronized with the system, and all emails and attachments will be loaded in real time.
Please note, that only the last 200 emails will be stored in the Inbox, Sent, and Trash folders. When the limit is reached, the earliest emails will be deleted. However, emails starred or related to app items will remain in the system. In BRIX On-Premises this option can be disabled. To do so, please contact BRIX tech support.
