Hello, I'm trying to configure Reply by Email to create ticket by email.
When the plugin is active the sserver is down so I followed the instruction creating a cronjob.
If I write an email to the created email address, the message arrives and after cronjob (every 5 minutes) it disappear from the inbox of emails but on ATS the ticket isn't created.
Where is the mistake? Can you help me, please?

Do you get any errors?

Is the email addressed to the email address specified as the ticket Category's email address? If not, ATS doesn't know which category it belongs to and gives up.

Do you have multiple Categories using the same email address? In this case ATS will pick up one. Which one it will be depends on a lot of things, so we strongly recommend not to do that.

Is the email sent from an address belonging to a Joomla! user? If not, ATS doesn't know who's emailing the ticket system and disregards the message.

Does the Joomla! user who emailed the ticket system have enough privileges to create a new ticket in that category? If not ATS will also disregard the email message.

I cannot think of any other reason the email would be read, removed from the server but nothing more would happen. Can you create a ticket using the user account you tried to create the ticket by email with?
