Emails are always downloaded and deleted or moved from / within the email accounts by Jira's Email Puller and Email Processor.
The email puller retrieves emails from email accounts (e.g. Gmail and Yahoo Mail) and stores them in the database (Emails received before the accounts are connected to the system are not pulled in).
The email processor processes emails retrieved by the puller.
Downloaded emails are then passed on to JETI which creates new issues from the emails or adds new comments to already existing issues based on the emails.
