Tickets aren't combined while customer replies to our email

At the moment we are in trail mode. Where we test Zendesk and the possibilities. 

A huge issue is that some of our customers are working with a ticketing system called 'Service Now'. When every they send an email. Our zendesk account send out the trigger about the notification. When a agent is replying to their email via zendesk they receive it good.

But when they reply to that email, back to us, zendesk is creating a new ticket. Everytime! 

It looks like Service Now is nog replying to the email adres support+id**@company.zendesk.com. But they send back the reply to Support@company.Zendesk.com

How to solve this? 

Can we for instance modify Zendesk that tickets are ordered or linked to each other by ticket number mentioned in the subject? 

Hope to hear a solution! 

 

Kind regards, 

Mark

Making two different helpdesk softwares talk nicely to each other is difficult. Zendesk users more than just the reply to email to identify a ticket. There is a ticket ID code placeholder that can be used but really it is almost impossible to make these work smoothly together.
