The end goal is to have emails automatically turned into Jira issues, with the sender of the email being the reporter (and as such getting the notifications from workflows). Currently with the plug ins I am using, the person who creates the issue in Jira from the outlook email is the reporter, but that doesn't help.
Ultimately I would like the service desk to manage all issues from Jira, but I want all staff to continue reporting issues via email, without interrupting this pre-existing process.
