This template periodically checks for new emails in your mailbox and uses the retrieved information (sender email and name) to create new contacts in dotdigital.

Note that the "Create a Contact" module will only update the contact in case the email is already present in dotdigital. Duplicate contacts will not be created.

The template is scheduled to run every 15 minutes. You can change the schedule after you set up the template.
