We have a service project that has a connected e-mail account. E-Mails to this account become tickets or comments (as described here).
Past week there was in issue with our e-mail account and the connected e-mail account in jira got disabled due to 24 unsuccesful tries of pulling mail from that account.
To my surprise there was no message whatsoever to any jira administrators about the broken e-mail connector. It just felt odd that we stopped receiving new tickets. It was then that I saw the error message in the project-configuration area.
Am I missing anything here? Is there a way to configure a setting like an alert on e-mail connectivity errors?
