From looking at scripts/mail-filter.php it seems as though you're only able to 
add new tickets through email - it essentially seems to resolve to a 
$whups->addTicket() call. As far as I can tell there's no way to actually 
append comments to an existing ticket through email - the $conf['mail']
['reply'] pref that I described only seems to add a "DO NOT REPLY TO THIS 
EMAIL" message to outgoing ticket notifications.
