There is some infrastructure in OFBiz for monitoring email accounts and processing email that comes in. It is the "MCA" stuff in the service engine. It is a variation on the Service ECA rules to trigger service calls (actions) and such based on incoming emails and conditions. Right now these are just low level tools and I don't think there is anything in place for assigning them to an employee or associating them with an existing Party or creating a CommunicationEvent for them. Those would be some other "low business level" utilities that would be nice to add in and that could be used in high level business processes.
