Hi, I just joined yesterday and then try to create an “email add to task”, but it is not working, I check the mail server log, the mail sent successfully to Asana, but it just adding the task in the project? In the mail the recipient is copied from the project ID like [x587048157xxxx@mail.asana.com](mailto:x587048157xxxx@mail.asana.com) The sender is coming from no-reply@our\_email\_domain Is that any other settings needed in order to make it works? Thanks, ---

Check out your Profile Settings into the “Email from” tab and make sure your source email is registered to add task by email to this project 😉 ---

Thanks, I thought any email addresses will be ok for my organization as long as from the same domain name is the same? it is not for just my profile, we have an app running on our server and when someone fills out the inquiry form then will create a task in the Asana project through email. Am i missing something? ---

It is working If I send the email from Gmail inbox, it just not working when sending out from the server that hosting on Gcloud and using Gsuite as outgoing mail replay. It works perfectly a week ago and I knew Asana change something about that email part. When looking at the mail log in Gsuite, it shows the email sent to Asana mail server successfully. Is the TLS need to be enabled? ---

@alexis all this time anyone could mask the email of someone and create tasks at his My Tasks and projects? 😊 ---
