How to stop internal e-mails being loaded as public comment in ticket and shared with reporter

A customer sends a co-worker an e-mail and puts the e-mailaddress we use for Jira in CC, which creates a new ticket with Request Type service request.

The co-worker forwards the same e-mail from this customer via Outlook internally to other co-workers and leaves our Jira e-mailaddress in CC.

The titel in the subject line is not changed, but the Jira-ticket number is not mentioned in the subjectline. The customer's e-mail address is not included in this internal e-mail exchange, because it is for internal use.

 

This co-worker is also an agent in our Jira Service Management Project, but never processed this e-mail as a ticket in Jira.

Yet, because the titel in the subject line is not changed, our Jira e-mailaddress is in CC and the original e-mail from the customer is forwarded, this internal e-mail is loaded as a public comment in this new ticket in our JSM Project and is shared with the original reporter, our customer. Which our co-worker never intended to do.

How can we stop such internal email responses being loaded as public comments in tickets and being shared with customers?

So the issue lies with the user being an agent. Currently any email that includes your JSM email channel that comes form an agent AND is interpreted by JSM to be related to an existing issue will result in a public comment. There is a suggestion current being investigated that would allow an email from an agent to be considered (optionally) as an internal comment.

For now the only recourse is to either have the agent use the app to enter an internal email OR remove the JSM email from the recipient list.

Hey Jack,

Thanks for the quick reply and information. Is there maybe a ticket for this suggestion which I can watch?

Best regards,
