Email is a way for End Users to submit their tickets. Normally all emails sent to NSP are converted to tickets. Only exception is if the email subject contains a unique prefix for the NSP installation and a ticket id. The email then is added as a comment to the existing ticket.
NSP does not accept email without sender address. If a message without sender is received it is blocked in server and it will not reach NSP application. Error log for blocked email messages are created in RestAPI log file.
You can set up the email account using different email service providers supported by NSP like Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft Office 365, Gmail, Yahoo or Custom (POP or IMAP).
To access the Email Configurations go to Configurations > Channels > Email Configurations.
Following figure shows the Email Configurations page:
Email Configurations page mainly contains the list of configured email accounts. Functions for search, sort, filtering, print and export are similar to other lists in NSP, see section General User Interface.
The list has the columns: Configuration Name, Account Type, Entity Type, Assigned to, Default, Status and Actions buttons Send Test Email, Validate incoming email configuration, Edit and Delete.
•Configuration Name: The name of the account
•Account Type: This can be one of any type from the provided types of providers.

•Assigned to: The group to whom the tickets created from emails sent to account are assigned.
•Default: column contains 
buttons to mark or unmark an email
account as default. Default email address will be used for outgoing mail
communication in NSP if specific account is not specified (in configuration form
you can specify which groups in NSP that shall use the account for outgoing
email, if no account is specified for a group, the standard account will be
used). Note that only one from the configured email accounts can be defined as
default.
•Status: Enable or disable use of the email account.
