EmailReporting creating note instead of new ticket

Hi,

Our installation setup is like below:
Mantis v2.22.1
EmailReporting Email Reporting 0.11.0

The scenario is like below:
In our shop, we have application that send email to Mantis in order to create ticket in Mantis. We dont use API for some internal issue. The behavior is, on the first email end by this application, EmailReporting able to pickup and create Mantis ticket accordingly, say MantisID 1234

However, on the subsequent emails send by this application, EmailReporting is creating new note under MantisID1234 instead of creating new Mantis ticket. BY right, EmailReporting should create new Mantis 1235, that at least the expectation.

This behavior doesnt happens if, we manually send the email one by one via Outlook. EmailReporting able to create new Mantis per email accordingly

Please advice. Thanks

Please activate debug mode and attach two emails sent by the problematic source to this forum thread so that we can investigate the problem

I suspect that the problematic source does not create proper unique message id's which results in EmailReporting adding subsequent notes
You can test that by turning off "Use Message-ID in Mail header to identify notes"

Indeed. So how, the message id sent are same for some of the email. Not sure why.

Is it possible to EmailReporting, to add checking to check on email's subject in order to determine whether EmailReporting to create ticket or to add note?

If you want me to find a solution you will need to add the requested raw_msg files

Otherwise if turning off "Use Message-ID in Mail header to identify notes" solved your issue then leave it turned off

We have sorted things out with the problematic application. They have fixed accordingly at their side by sending unique message id for every email send out to Mantis. So far, things look good.

Thanks to you
