Common Issues with 'Received from Support Address' in Zendesk

Discover common problems caused by 'Received from support address' suspension in Zendesk and how to resolve mail loop issues.

What are common problems caused by the 'Received from support address' suspension in Zendesk?

The 'Received from support address' suspension can lead to several issues, primarily mail loops. This occurs when emails are forwarded from a support address to your Zendesk account and then back to the support address, creating a loop. This can result in important tickets being suspended and not reaching the intended recipients.

To resolve this, ensure that the 'from' and 'reply-to' addresses reflect the actual requester's email address. This adjustment helps prevent mail loops and ensures that tickets are processed correctly. Manual recovery of suspended tickets is necessary, as automatic recovery is not possible for this suspension cause.
