For an existing Yandex 360 mailbox, use the IMAP and SMTP server settings from [Yandex Mail Help](https://yandex.com/support/yandex-360/business/mail/en/mail-clients/others.html). We recommend using the mailbox exclusively with Yandex Tracker: all incoming emails will be converted to issues in your queue. {% note warning "" %} Yandex Tracker doesn't support integration with the Microsoft Exchange Online messaging service. {% endnote %} Before you begin, [open the queue settings](https://yandex.com.tr/support/tracker/en/manager/queue-mail-settings.md#settings) and click **Configure email addresses**. {#open} Select **On any email server**. ### Setting up an email address for receiving messages {#get-mail} Messages sent to the email address specified for receiving messages are converted to queue issues. If the queue email address is associated with a user account, issues are automatically assigned to that user. 1. Under **Email for receiving messages**, in the **Email** field, specify the queue email address. For example: `login@yandex.com`. The **Login** field will be populated automatically. ![](../_assets/queue-mail-other-service.png =600x){.border-yes} 1. In the **Password** field, provide the password for the email account. If the chosen email server supports the use of application passwords to control access to the email account, provide the application password for email clients in this field.

If you want to handle messages from both the organization's employees and external users, enable the **Receive messages not only from company employees** option. {% cut "Additional parameters" %} * **Inbox folder**: In your mailbox, create a folder for emails from Yandex Tracker and specify its name. Messages arriving in this folder are automatically converted to queue issues. * **Archive folder**: In your mailbox, create a folder for archiving messages transferred to Yandex Tracker and specify its name. If the folder doesn't exist, Yandex Tracker attempts to create it automatically. If the email server doesn't allow the folder to be created, Yandex Tracker can't process messages. * **Start date of email processing**: Specify the date. Messages received prior to this date are not processed and are automatically moved to the **Archive folder**. If no date is specified, issues will be generated from messages received from the date of setup. Use separate folders to collect and archive incoming messages. {% endcut %} 1.
