Is there a way to set the auto link on as default vs. having to check
it each time a contact is added? This way all new contacts will
automatically be linked to emails sent and received.

I also had to copy my contacts from the default contact folder to BCM
contacts and it seems I have to go and email auto link each contact
individually.

If there is no default, is there a way to perform this on multiple
contacts?

Thanks
