Yes, this works with either "Project -> Issues", or, maybe more
in line with your problem, "Sales -> Helpdesk and Support".
It has some very nice features, such as using the message id to
append later messages to the same issue.
OTOH, at least in v7, there are still some rough edges:

 - HTML messages (unfortunately very common these days) are a
   mess in the web interface.

 - attachments such as pictures, must be downloaded first and
   shown in an external viewer, because the MIME type is not set
   (or set wrongly)

 - there are some problems in the send email function

Maybe this is already solved in v8, I have to check.

Compared to Trac + email2trac, which I've been using before, it
has both advantages and disadvantages. The single most pressing
point, which makes me think about returning to Trac is the
missing full-text search search in project issues and helpdesk.
Also, the Trac user interface is much cleaner and featureful in
respect to ticket query.
