Duplicate tickets being created

1. Whenever ServiceNow gets a forward email with two watermarks, it is creating a duplicate ticket.

2. Whenever ServiceNow gets a reply email with two watermarks, it doesn't create a duplicate ticket and the email is added to existing ticket's additional comments.

I want Forward email also to work as reply email i.e., no duplicates must be created when a forward email is sent to ServiceNow with two watermarks.

Please help me.

Yes exactly. I have three inbound actions.



1. Forwarded mail without watermark that create a new create


2. Reply mail with watermark that updates an existing ticket


3. Forwarded mail with watermark which should update existing ticket which is not happening


Putting 're:,aw:,r:,fw:,fwd:,RE:,Re:,Fwd:,FWD: ' in the Identify mail as a reply by these subject prefixes

will handle the forwarded, and reply.


Look at the table in the community. Inbound email action type   = reply uses the Update Incident (BP).


If the email doesn't meet the conditions the a new incident is created.


Make changes on a sub-prod instance first . you will need to have the instance restarted for the properties to start. ' 're:,aw:,r:,fw:,fwd:,RE:,Re:,Fwd:,FWD: '






Thanks a lot Linda. I will surely try it
