Hack: If there is only one POP3 Account we might as well show all about it all the time.

Do you want to be able to reply to email notifications?
For that to work you need to make the "Sitemaster email" property be the same email address as one accepting email defined below. It is also highly recommended that your new-issue-notifications contain the full description of the issue and not just the title.

Change Sitemaster email to:

Create an accepting email for

is not a valid email address. Change it first.
and include full description in email notifications about new issues.

It is highly recommended that you first install formatflowed.py from Zopatista.com on your system to better parse the email replies.

For this to work you first have to create at least one POP3 account.

This is how it works:
You create one or more POP3 accounts.
For each account you define one or more email address which is dedicated to accepting emails into the IssueTracker.
For each email address you define what Sections, Type and Urgency the issue should take if it's not obvious from the subject line of the email.
The email sender can override these by mentioning certain words in the subject line in a special format.
It is your responsibility to periodically trigger the search for new emails.

Read more about periodically checking for email and for a list of examples of how the email sender can compose the subject of the email see the bottom of this page.

Periodically checking for email

The URL you must periodically invoke to check for new emails is:
/check4MailIssues (or same but more verbose)
