Support mail, also known as a support email or customer support email, is an email address specifically designated for handling customer inquiries, feedback, complaints, or requests for assistance. It serves as a means of communication between customers and a company's support team or customer service department.
When customers encounter issues or have questions about a product, service, or any aspect of a company's offerings, they can send an email to the support mail address provided by the company. The support team is responsible for receiving and responding to these emails, providing guidance, troubleshooting assistance, or resolving customer concerns
To setup this support email, Tenant should host an application, and grant permissions for email read/write and Modify email activities.
Email Provider: Email provider is Microsoft or Google account. Currently it is supported for Microsoft.
Support mail: Support Email is for Mail box configuration, where mails are received to the "Support Mail".
Tenant ID: A tenant ID, also known as a directory ID, is a unique identifier that represents a tenant or organization within a multi-tenant cloud service environment. In services like Microsoft Azure Active Directory, a tenant ID is assigned to each organization using the service. It helps differentiate and isolate resources and data between different tenants or organizations.
Tenant ID is often used in conjunction with client ID to identify the client application within a specific organization's context.
Client ID: A client ID is a unique identifier assigned to an application or client by the authorization server. It is typically a public, alphanumeric string that serves as a credential to identify the client when making requests to the server.
Client Secret: A client secret, also referred to as an application secret or client password, is a confidential and secure piece of information used by an application to authenticate itself with the authorization server. It is typically a long, randomly generated string. The client secret is shared only between the application and the authorization server to verify the application's identity and ensure secure communication during the OAuth 2.0 flow.

Auto forward:
The Auto forward feature is a valuable addition to our helpdesk system. It automates the ticket forwarding process, ensuring that tickets are automatically sent to the next recipient in a predefined hierarchy order, such as partners, distributors, and administrators.
To enable the Auto forward feature, Users can toggle it on in the configuration settings. When a user submits a ticket, it is automatically forwarded to the top recipient in the hierarchy. If the ticket is resolved, the process ends, but if escalation is needed, the ticket can be manually forwarded to the next recipient.
