Emailing From A Lead Is Not Populating The "To:" Field

Hi

We have users who want to email from the default Leads view, but when they click on a lead, or multiple leads, then do Bulk Action > Email, the To: field doesn’t populate.

I suspect this is because we have two email fields in our Leads, both of which are custom fields.

How would I map one of those fields, its called “school__email_c” to be the default field that way this function will work.

Or, if thats not what is causing it, what could be causing it? Thanks

I don’t really know, but from a quick look i would say you should maybe customize this file

modules/Emails/include/ComposeView/EmailsComposeView.js

look for the to_addrs_names variable and try to understand where it’s coming from and how it works.

Hey thanks for responding

I do not have the “include” directory in modules/Emails

Im on version 7.8.2

It’s better if you say that at the beginning, not after you had me wasting time searching the code…

Try searching the code in your server for “to_addrs_names”, I suppose you will find what you’re looking for. Good luck
