SD auto reply filter - emails rejected

Priyendu Bhardwaj

I am using JIRA Service Desk in Cloud. I have a set up to create tickets in response to emails. The email service request address is part of my office 365 group and when someone sends email to my Office 365 mailbox, email is also copied to JIRA mailbox and a ticket is created (not yet though.)

The email log rejects all emails with message "The message was rejected because it is auto-reply mail."

If I do not use Office 365 Group and use a distribution list, there is no issue with email processing. It is almost like my emails copy sent from Office 365 group is adding something in message header. I cannot see email headers in JIRA to confirm that.

Anyone has faced this issue? There are couple of solutions I found but none are applicable to Cloud.

Hi Priyendu,

Thanks for reaching out to Community!
The emails are rejected due to JIRA mail handlers reading the header of the email and if the line Auto-Submitted: auto-generated is found, the system will automatically reject the email.
You can find more details here:

The Global Processor scheduler job runs every minute and processes all unprocessed mail items saved in the database by the Global Puller. This scheduler job runs independently to the Global Puller. JEPP currently has the following default filters to be reused:

AutoReplyMailFilter - This filter rejects auto-replied emails. If Auto-Submitted header in an email has a value different from "no", that email will be considered as auto-replied emails. Ref: http://www.iana.org/assignments/auto-submitted-keywords/auto-submitted-keywords.xhtml

We have a feature request to set up a "whitelist" to allow certain senders access to bypass this check, which you can check here: JSDCLOUD-1924.

Hope this clarifies!

Regards,
Angélica

Thanks Angelica! I am trying to use the workaround of remove keywords from message header, no luck so far though. It would help if I could get more details in processing log, like what exactly was found in the header, auto-reply, spam or delivery status notification.

Since there is minimal information from JIRA side, we had to play with multiple set ups. For Office 365, email forwards to JSD will work if we use a distribution list or shared mailbox. It does not work if we use office 365 group.

Hi @Priyendu Bhardwaj ,

Could you tell me more about your workaround ? I can't get it to work.

My last try :

In an Office 365 shared mailbox, I have set up Mail > Forwarding > Enable forwarding my email to my JSD email address. But email still are rejected by SD auto reply filter.

I also tried to add rules to forward the email, or to forward the message as an attachment, but JIRA reject all of this as well.
