sender email address

Hi @RainerBln,

If the sender’s email address is included as the “Reply-to” address in the email header when the email is forwarded into Freshdesk, then we could have Freshdesk create the ticket requester using this Reply-to address instead of the “From” address. This can be done by going to Admin->Email->Advanced settings and turning ON the option “Use ‘Reply-to’ email address to create requester contacts” as seen in the screenshot below

Could you check if this option is enabled at your end? If yes, then can you check if your server is including the sender’s email address as the “Reply-to” address in the header?

Regards,
