The SupportCandy – Email Piping Addon is one of the most powerful automation features of the SupportCandy helpdesk system. It enables complete email-based support, allowing customers to open new tickets simply by sending an email, and reply to existing tickets directly from their inbox—without logging into your website.
This addon connects your support mailbox (IMAP/POP3) to SupportCandy and automatically processes incoming email messages. It intelligently detects ticket IDs, assigns messages to the correct ticket, and prevents duplicate or spam entries.
Agents can answer tickets from the admin panel, and customers will receive replies via email—creating a seamless hybrid support workflow.
Essential for businesses that want professional email support, improved customer experience, and reduced friction in communication.
