Preparing to check for email

Email was successfully fetched
In Reply By Email config
Reply by email = Yes
Only for Managers = No
Create ticket by email = Yes
In Category created to receive emails from inbox, permissions for the user group to which the test user belongs:
Support Staff Inherited (Not Allowed)
Create Allowed (Allowed)
Delete Inherited (Not Allowed)
Edit Inherited (not Alllowed)
Edit State Inherited (Not Allowed)
Create Private Allowed (Allowed)
Create Attachment Allowed (Allowed)
I'm stumped - where else can I look for configuration or permissions to enable the reply by email so users can create tickets by email? Thanks in advance, Mike
