3655409 - Support Account Determination Based on Email Channel in Service Cloud V2

Symptom

  • In the email-to-case functionality, when a contact is linked to multiple accounts, the system assigns the case to the contact’s main account, even if the email was sent to a channel configured for a different account.
  • To illustrate:
    • Contact XYZ is linked to:
      • Account A (marked as main)
      • Account B
    • Two distinct email channels are configured:
      • Channel A → support-A@example.com → assigned to Account A
      • Channel B → support-B@example.com → assigned to Account B
    • When Contact XYZ sends an email to Channel B, the system still assigns the case to Account A.
    • Switching the contact’s main account to Account B causes the case to be assigned to the correct account, confirming the system behavior is based on contact-to-main-account linkage.
