Keep these considerations in mind if you’ve enabled email privacy settings for your company:

  • Email privacy settings for contacts, leads, and person accounts are available in the record details. Email privacy settings apply whether you’re sending the email from Lightning Experience or from Outlook or Gmail.
  • The integrations show when a contact, lead, or person has opted to not receive a type of email, or to not have email messages tracked.

  • The Send Non-Commercial Email permission, which allows Salesforce users to send transactional emails from Lightning Experience, isn’t enforced in the Outlook and Gmail integrations. It’s the sales reps’ responsibility to respect an email recipient’s privacy when sending emails from Outlook or Gmail.
