Hi All,


Contrary to what one might think, the use of email to reach customer service is still on the rise.

I will introduce Today an essential feature of Microsoft Ticketing app which is the capability for your customer to interacts with your agent using email, also called email to ticket.


Configure your email to ticket

To know more, you can either read the highlights below or watch this video for a more detail explanation.


Go to the Setting area and open the Email to Ticket setting:

  • Click +Email Account.


  • Pick the email mailbox you’d like to use.


  • The email you've selected will be displayed with the status Active.


  • Acknowledgement is the email user will be greeted with when sending new enquiry by email


  • You can configure an Email Signature that will automatically be appended to all messages from your support team

Notification to assignee

As an IT help desk manager, Allan receives notifications for new requests coming from email. To streamline this process, Allan uses the automation feature, which automatically assigns the request to him. For more detailed information about automation feature, you can read this blog post.

Assignees creates a new ticket on behalf of an external requestor

Allan creates a ticket on behalf of John. But, because John is an external user, Allan creates ticket using John's email as requestor.


Assignee comments a ticket

When an assignee adds a comment to a ticket, it sends an email to the requestor by default. 


Requestor replies to the email

When the requestor replies to the email, it adds the response as a comment in the Ticketing App and notifies back the assignee.



Add more people to the conversation

With "Cc" email management, when Adele adds people to the "Cc" section in her response, they get recorded in the conversation, keeping them updated to the ticket activity.
