Hello,

The reporter will be assigned to the issue from the mail sender address. If you hover over the reporter, you will see the email.

The sender isn’t a jira user, and I don’t want automatically register it. I would set the value of a custom field.

I see. In this case you would need a plugin like JETI or JEMH

No anotherone alternative? Is there a message handler event to attach before the email message is deleted? Can I obtain the original message in the create issue workflow?

You would need to write your own message handler, if you do not want to use an add-on.
