When there is a ticket that is already in the queue and its for an internal person but you add an outside email address, the replies from the outside address appear to be ignored even if there is a MSG ID in the ticket. I understand that new tickets aren't created from messages received but it would be good that if a reply is received with a msg id attached that the appropriate ticket is updated.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks

You'll have to create a new Inbound Action as per your requirement.

You could use something like this.
But as mentioned, please check this first, because it won't work otherwise:
Incoming email to ServiceNow- Guest User - Support and Troubleshooting
gs.include('validators');
var grUser = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
if (!grUser.get('email', email.from)) {
if (current.getTableName() == "incident") {
current.comments = "reply from: " + email.origemail + "\n\n" + email.body_text;
current.update();
}
}

Hi Peter,
I have tried this but when external user sent a reply it shows under activity not in additional comments.
Thanks
