Hi @Jira admin

As it is showing the sender is anonymous, so to create a Jira issue the user should have create issue permission for that respective project and as it is anonymous user you need to set the default reporter while configuring the mail handler.

So that whenever email will sent by anonymous user then it will check if this user is available or not, if not then it will set the default reporter as a reporter for that Jira issue.

HI @Jira admin

Whatever you have been configured looks good, now whenever you will reply back to that mail just add a issue key within the subject line hence the mail handler/service will check either with this issue key already ticket is available within the instance or not, if yes, then it will add the comment on that respective ticket.

if not then it will create a new issue.
