Email Handling

Current Emails workspace

The selected mailbox or queue on the left defines the active work context. Emails parked by the Architect flow under ManualAssignment stay visible here so GenEmails users can inspect, route, assign, and classify before normal ACD distribution resumes.

TimelineConversation progression, message order, participant transitions, queue-related handling context, and the Queue Movement Diagram icon.Used to understand how the email arrived, where it moved, who handled it, and whether review, SPAM, or wrap-up actions occurred.

Email Content icons

IconPurposeBehavior
TagsOpens the sender tag editor for the selected email sender.Tags are stored per tenant contact. Each contact can have up to three tags, and each tenant tag has a unique label and color.
Pop outOpens the selected email in a wider modal.The pop-out view gives more space for body content, remote-image controls, downloads, and attachment preview or download actions.
ForwardOpens the send email modal with forwarding content prepared.The modal uses the configured SMTP sender as the read-only From address, fills the selected subject, adds forwarded-by details for the current agent, and includes original content. Attachments are included when Genesys allows them to be downloaded.
TrackAdds or removes the selected conversation from the signed-in user's tracked conversation list.Tracked conversations are persistent per user. They can be found later from Custom Search using the Tracked Conversations filter. Removing the track mark removes that conversation from the tracked list.

Sender tags

Sender tags let users maintain a lightweight tenant contact database. A contact record stores the sender full name when available, the sender email address, and up to three tags. Tags can be reused across contacts, but within a tenant each tag label and tag color must be unique.

When a user removes the final tag from a contact, the contact entry is deleted. When the last contact using a tag is deleted or no longer uses that tag, GenEmails automatically removes the unused tenant tag to keep the tag list clean.

Timeline Queue Movement Diagram

The Timeline tab includes a Queue Movement Diagram icon. The diagram converts the selected conversation timeline into a queue and status path so users can see when the email entered the mailbox, moved through workflow, entered queues, went to Review or SPAM, returned to the original queue, reached Agent Work, and was wrapped or disposed.

The vertical rows are ordered by the time each event occurred. The horizontal columns represent queue names or status phases such as Received, workflow processing, Review Queue, SPAM Queue, Agent Work, and Disposed. Dashed connectors show the movement path between events. Cards use different colors for different event types, and hovering a card shows details such as agent, queue, duration, reason, flow, or wrap-up when those values are available.

The Email detail tabs are controlled by matching visibility flags in Access Control. Those are GenEmails UI gates only. Genesys read permissions still determine whether the underlying data can be loaded.
