Support email

How do I turn support emails into tickets in Tazk Service Desk?

Connect your support mailbox so every customer email becomes a ticket, and replies come back to it. Customers already email you. Connect that mailbox and each new email opens a ticket. Replies from your team go out with this address as the reply-to, so the customer’s answer lands back on the same ticket.

How do I set up support email?

  1. Go to Setup › Support email and click Connect a support mailbox.
  2. Enter the mailbox address, its IMAP server and the password (for Gmail, an app password).
  3. Choose the request type and priority new emails start with.
  4. Save, then click Check now to read it straight away. Recent mail shows what was picked up.

What happens to each email

  • From a known customer → a ticket linked to them.
  • From an unknown address → a ticket marked “Customer not linked”.
  • A reply to a solved ticket reopens it; a reply to a finished one opens a new ticket linked to it.
  • Newsletters, auto-replies and bounces are skipped.

Common questions

Is the password safe?
