The below table is to compare the mailing capabilities of Jira and Email this Issue (both Server and Cloud versions).

Not all features are listed here to a full extent due to minor differences in the different products and deployment versions, however, we have tried to highlight the biggest benefits one solution has over another.
Linked features contain links referring to the server version documentation of JETI. For the Cloud version's documentation, please refer to the Cloud documentation overview.

Emailing basics

* 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.
