In Qadiyo, open Settings, then Integrations, then My integrations.

Outlook or Microsoft 365: add a rule
In Outlook on the web, open Settings, then Mail, then Rules, and add a new rule on the mailbox clients write to, for example info@yourfirm.com.
Choose Apply to all messages, then the action Redirect to, and enter your Qadiyo address. Redirect keeps the client as the sender, which works best.
If Outlook says forwarding to outside addresses is not allowed, your Microsoft 365 administrator needs to allow automatic forwarding for this mailbox (Microsoft Defender, anti-spam outbound policy). Forwarding emails by hand always works.

Gmail or Google Workspace: add a forwarding address
In Gmail, open Settings, See all settings, Forwarding and POP/IMAP, then Add a forwarding address, and enter your Qadiyo address.
Gmail sends a confirmation code to that address. Qadiyo shows the code under Email forwarding in Settings. Enter it in Gmail, then choose Forward a copy of incoming mail.

Forward by hand and copy us on replies
Any enquiry can be forwarded to the address from any mailbox or phone. Qadiyo finds the client inside the forwarded email.
Add the address in Cc or Bcc when you reply to a client, and the reply is logged on the lead and counts toward your response times.

Send a test email
From a personal address that is not your firm's (for example a Gmail account), send an email to the mailbox you set up, as if you were a client.
In Qadiyo, open Leads. The enquiry appears within a minute with the source Email.
Under Email forwarding in Settings, Recent emails shows every email received and why any was skipped.
Good to know
- Qadiyo never replies to anyone from this address and never reads your mailbox; it only sees what is sent to it.
- Automatic replies, newsletters and delivery notices are ignored.
- Choose New address at any time to retire the old one.
