Summary

Email tracking is now enabled for your company. Your users will now be able to track email opens. For each message sent, Groove will create a Tracked Message record in Salesforce. When a contact/prospect opens an email, Groove will create a Tracked Message Event. You can use these two custom objects to report on all your tracked messages.
