When emails is sent with the same subject line, Jira Mail Handler creates new issue every time

Hi,

We work with another company that use their own Ticketing system. They send several emails for each ticket with different subjects which always contains a Ticket number. We would like to, when we receive an email with a new ticket number from their system, for jira to create one issue. If we receive more emails that contain on the subject that ticket number, instead of creating a new issue, add the new email as comments for the existing Jira issue. For example:

1- Customer sends an automated email with subject: Ticket INC2312313 has been created. This would create a ticket in Jira JIRA-12. 

2- Their team wants to make an update on the ticket, but they use a totally different subject and is not even a reply to their first one, with subject: Regarding INC2312313. Jira would detect the code and, instead of creating a new issue, would attach it to the already existing issue JIRA-12

Is there a way of achieving this, either natively or with plug-ins? Thanks!
