The email address from the email channel is added as requested participant. I don't want it.

[Raphael Bovier]

I set up an email channel to turn email messages into requests. The email adresss used for the channel ist xyz@beispiel.com. I works fine, but in each request now, xyz@beispiel.com is added as requested participant. Is there a way to turn that off and just keep the others email-addresses.

Thanks

Hello @Raphael Bovier 

As i understood you wrote mail from xyz@beispiel.com to jira support mail and request is created and reporter is xyz@beispiel.com and also in request participants field email is xyz@beispiel.com?

Because i highly doubt it, that it's the case.

Request participants value comes from CC email addresses.

Hi @Ugnius Aušra 

Here an exemple 

raf.bov@zum.ch send a email an xyz@beispiel.com. xyz@beispiel.com is connected to JSM as Email-Channel. A new ticket is generated with raf.bov@zum.ch as reporter and xyz@beispiel.com as requested participant.  That means that all the tickets, that come from the email-channel have xyz@beispiel.com as requested participant.

Jira Service Management does not add the email channel mailbox as a request participant by default.

If the mailbox appears as a participant, it means the address was present in the email headers (To/CC), often due to mail client behavior, aliases, or forwarding rules.

JSM does not filter out its own channel address if it is included in the message headers.

Also, xyz@beispiel.com is a usermailbox? Or is it created as a sharedmailbox?

I found the origin of this behaviour. If I change the option in 

Customer permissions

from  a) "other customers in their organization" to b) "any customer, by typing an email address". 

With the b) option, the email channel mailbox is always added  as a request participant.

The problem is with a) a lot of "real" cc doesn't appear as requested participant (if they are not registered yet)

Channel access is Open or Restricted?

open

And issue is still relevant?

For me the implementation is not logical, it looks like a bug. I don't want to get the email-address I use for the channel as "requested participant ". This should not happen even if you change the "sharing" settings. It makes no sense to me. 

A workaround is to implement an automatation to "delete" the email. But t's not very elegant
