For example, you can create a group with the address support@your-domain.com, add your support staff as members, and allow people outside your organization to send messages to the group. Your support staff will receive your customers' messages, and they can do any of the following from the group's Topics view: Assign responsibility for a topic to a member of the group Mark a topic as resolved Edit the tags associated with a topic Filter topics according to tag, resolution status, or assignee See instructions on how to set up a collaborative inbox
