Email Mapping

The Email Mapping page assigns default values for tickets created using the Email Reader. The default values assigned are based on the email address or email domain of the email sender. Matching can be optionally filtered by the text entered in the email subject line. This information overrides the standard defaults defined using Edit Fields.

Email Address or Domain

The email address or domain of the sender.  For example: jsmith@acme.com or acme.com.

Set map for unassigned emails

If checked, assigns default field values for inbound emails not covered by any other email map.

Subject Line Filter

Assigns ticket defaults when the email subject line matches the filter string. Matching is case insensitive. No wildcard processing is provided. A single *, without any other characters in the filter, means let anything through. Booleans statements are not accepted.
