  2. Select the mobile icon.
  3. Click the edit icon on the applicable integration.
  4. Click the desired email from the list.

    1. Send label: When configured, the information entered in the field is always used as the sender name (label), regardless of who sent the email.
    2. Skill: Select the applicable skill for this email address.
    3. Due within: The amount of time before the application marks an incoming email with no response as overdue.
    4. Send due within: The amount of time before the system marks a task without a response from the customer as overdue.
    5. State: Shows when the email was last checked and displays information about whether there are any issues fetching emails.
