Turn portal lead emails into leads
Give a source a private inbound address, forward the portal's lead emails from Gmail or Outlook, and review anything unclear.
Updated 5 Oct 2026
What you need
- Permission to manage lead routing (Owner or Admin by default)
- Access to the mailbox that receives the portal's lead emails
On this page
Every portal emails you its leads. Forward those emails to a source’s private PropZolo address and each one becomes a lead — the portal’s format is read for you, and the raw email is kept as proof of the enquiry.
Turn on the address
- Open the source in Settings → Leads → Lead sources (make one per portal).
- Choose Turn on the inbound address and copy the inbound email address.
Forward from Gmail or Google Workspace
- Settings → See all settings → Forwarding and POP/IMAP → Add a forwarding address: paste the inbound address.
- Gmail mails a confirmation to PropZolo — its code appears on the source page within a minute. Confirm it in Gmail. PropZolo never confirms forwarding on its own.
- Create a filter (From: the portal’s address, e.g.
99acres.com) → Forward it to the inbound address.
Forward from Outlook or Microsoft 365
- Settings → Mail → Rules → Add new rule: From contains the portal’s domain → Forward to the inbound address.
- If your organisation blocks automatic forwarding, ask your IT admin to allow it for this address.
Leads waiting for review
Emails the portal signed (DKIM) and that match a known format become leads at once. Anything else — an unknown format, an unsigned email — waits for review: the source shows how many are waiting. Open one, check what PropZolo read from it (and how sure it is), then approve it to create the lead or reject it.
