HamaraEmail — Business Email Inside Your CRM

HamaraEmail brings your business email inside HamaraCRM®. Instead of one team switching between Gmail, Outlook and the CRM all day — losing context at every jump — your inbox, sent items, drafts, templates and reports live in the same place as your customers, deals and follow-ups. Connect any company mailbox over IMAP and SMTP, share it across the team with role-based access, and every email sits against the right client record automatically.

Why Email Belongs Inside Your CRM

Most Indian businesses run customer email in a separate app from the CRM. The result is familiar: replies get missed because nobody owns the shared inbox, the same customer is emailed twice, staff copy-paste details between the mail client and the CRM, and when someone leaves, their inbox history leaves with them. HamaraEmail removes that gap. The email is the CRM — so a message from a customer already knows who they are, what they bought, and what was promised.

A Shared Team Inbox That Nothing Falls Out Of

HamaraEmail is built for shared mailboxes like support@, sales@ or accounts@, not just individual accounts. The whole team works one inbox with clear visibility of what is handled and what still needs a reply. Auto-sync (as often as every 5 minutes) keeps the CRM view and your mail server in step, so an email answered in Outlook shows as answered in the CRM too.

• Inbox, Sent, Drafts and Trash — a complete mail client, not a stripped-down preview
• Shared mailbox mode so a team owns one address together
• Auto-sync two-way with your mail server on a schedule you set
• Compose, reply and forward with your signature added automatically, just like Gmail or Outlook

A Dashboard That Tells You What to Do Next

HamaraEmail opens on an action list, not a wall of unread mail. At a glance the team sees what actually needs attention:

• To collect — outstanding payment conversations, with amount and item count
• Meetings & calls — what is scheduled today and what is coming next
• Urgent — needs attention — the threads that cannot wait
• Awaiting reply — where the customer is waiting on you, and for how long (the oldest, in days)
• Pending follow-ups — surfaced alongside follow-up reminders so nothing is forgotten

Insights turn a mailbox from a place work arrives into a place work gets closed.

Connect Any Company Mailbox

HamaraEmail works with your existing business email — no migration, no new address to learn. Add an account with standard IMAP (incoming) and SMTP (outgoing) settings, choose SSL security and the right ports, set a display name and signature, and you are live. Multiple mailboxes and multiple company domains are supported from one CRM.

Only company-owned domains are allowed — personal providers like Gmail and Yahoo are blocked at domain level, so business communication stays on business identities. Domain Management shows every connected domain, its status and how many accounts run on it.

Role-Based Email Access for Your Whole Team

Not everyone should see every email. HamaraEmail gives you precise control, two ways:

• Per-mailbox allocations — grant each user exactly what they need: Inbox, Sent, Read, Compose or Delete. A read-only reviewer, a full agent and an owner are each one click to set.
• Client-scoped access — a “Read → Clients” setting lets a staff member see only emails to and from customers, never internal mail. Admins are never restricted.
• Tab permissions by designation — control which tabs (Dashboard, Inbox, Sent, Reports, Settings and more) each role even sees. Admin tabs like Accounts, Domain Management and Settings stay Super-Admin only unless explicitly granted.

This pairs naturally with multi-location support, so branch teams see their own mail while head office sees across branches.

Email Templates With Merge Variables

Stop rewriting the same email. HamaraEmail templates support merge variables like {customer_name}, {employee_name}, {company_name} and {appointment_date}, so a ready-made message personalises itself for each recipient. Common templates — Appointment Reminder, Follow-up Email, Payment Reminder, Welcome Email — are set up once and reused by the whole team, keeping tone and wording consistent.

Encrypted, Authenticated and Audited

Business email carries sensitive customer data, so security is built in rather than bolted on:

• Encryption at rest — email bodies are encrypted, and attachments are encrypted on storage with AES-256. Subjects stay searchable, and content search runs through a privacy-protected blind index (hashed words, no readable text).
• Spam and spoofing checks — every email is evaluated against SPF, DKIM and DMARC, so spoofed and suspicious mail is flagged and genuine mail is not.
• Secure attachment storage — attachments are downloaded and stored on encrypted cloud storage.
• Full activity log — a delivery and audit trail records every send: who it went to, which recipients the server accepted or rejected, the exact SMTP result, and whether a copy was saved to the server. This is how you answer “the client says it never arrived”.

It all sits on the same protected platform described on our Security & Data Protection page.

Reports and Deliverability Tools

• Email usage reports — sent and read counts per user, so you can see who is actively working the mailbox. Part of Analytics & Reports.
• Failed email tracking — see what bounced or was rejected, and why.
• Mailbox reports — usage and health across every connected account.
• Maintenance tools — merge duplicate sent copies, re-thread conversations that were wrongly grouped, re-check spam flags, and fetch missing attachments, all from Settings.

How HamaraEmail Fits the Rest of HamaraCRM®

Email is one channel; HamaraCRM® keeps them all on one customer timeline. Use HamaraEmail alongside the ticketing system to turn support mail into tracked tickets, WhatsApp and call integration so chats and calls sit next to email, and client management so every message is attached to the right customer record. For sales teams, it works hand-in-hand with lead management and customer support.
