New Post: Using POP3 Mailbox

$

Please excuse my ignorance, but I am trying to set-up the Pop3 Mailbox to allow emails to be sent to BugNet Issue Tracker, which would then be converted to Issues.

I just want to check to make sure I have a correct understanding of how this works.  From what I can gather:

  1. I go to the Application Configuration page and select "POP3 Mailbox".  I enter the details of my POP3 Mailbox which is effectively an email account, ie:issue.tracking@example.com.
  2. I then need to set-up a number of Aliases through my email client for the different projects I am working on, for example,project.1@example.com and project.2@example.com.
  3. I then go into the relevant projects in the BugNet Issue Tracker and enter the alias details for each project under "Mailboxes".  For example, Project 1 would have the mailboxproject.1@example.com, which is an alias forissue.tracking@example.com.
  4. As BugNet Issue Tracker scans the POP3 Mailbox (issue.tracking@example.com), it is able to determine what the "to" address was (ie: this would be the alias, eg:project.1@example.com).  It is then able to assign that email to the correct project and create an issue accordingly.

Am I correct in all of this?

Appreciate your help.

Stephen
