Important
If you create tasks via email in Planfix, there is a limitation to creating contacts and adding contacts as task participants. For example, if you enter more than 20 email addresses in the "Email copy" field, Planfix cannot create new contacts or add them as task participants, considering such an email to be a bulk email.
