Appending Email Addresses to Comments Made by Anonymous Users when Using a Mail Handler

To append email addresses to comments made by anonymous users when using a mail handler, follow the instructions below.

1. Modify AbstractCommentHandler.java by adding 6 more lines after line 81, after the code block under if (body != null):

                            // append the From address at the end of  body
                        body += "\n[Commented via e-mail ";
                        if (message.getFrom() != null &&  message.getFrom().length > 0)
                            body += "received from: " +  message.getFrom()[0] + "]";
                        else
                            body += "but could not establish  sender's address.]";
   

2. Place the compiled .class file under <jira-install/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/jira/web/action/issue/AbstractCommentableIssue.class
3. Restart JIRA
