To enable your users to email data and separately capture the email's parts
- Add an email or single-line field to your form. Set its field link name as ZC_From. This is to capture the From address of the email.
- Add a single-line or multi-line field to your form. Set its field link name as ZC_Subject. This is to capture the email's subject.
- Add a rich-text field to your form. Set its field link name as ZC_Content. This is to capture the email's body.
- Add a file upload field to your form. Set its field link name as ZC_File. This is to capture an attachment in the email.
- If you expect multiple attachments in your incoming emails, you must add that many number of file-upload fields and set their field link names as ZC_File0, ZC_File1, and so on.
- The attachments in the incoming emails will be alphabetically captured. In other words, if the email has files "a.txt" and "b.pdf" attached, then "a.txt" will be captured by the field ZC_File0 and "b.pdf" by the field ZC_File1.
