Why isn't Zendesk creating tickets from my customers' emails?

If Zendesk isn't creating tickets from your customers' emails, it could be due to issues with your email forwarding rules. These rules ensure that incoming emails are correctly routed to Zendesk to create tickets. If they're not set up properly, emails might not be forwarded, and tickets won't be created. For more information on setting up email forwarding, see the article: Forwarding incoming email to Zendesk Support.
