Default version not set on issues created via rdm-mailhandler.rb

[franfabrizio]

I'm running Redmine 1.4.4. I've configured rdm-mailhandler.rb for this particular project with the command-line option --allow-override=fixed_version. I've specified a default version for this project in the project settings, and the target version dropdown gets pre-populated correctly in the New Issue form on the web interface.

When I create a new ticket by emailing into the project via this rdm-mailhandler.rb configuration, the issue gets created with no target version.

Is this functionality supposed to be there? If so, can you suggest some troubleshooting? If not, is it possible to add functionality so that the default version is applied to issues created via email?

Thanks,
Fran
