We have been using Redmine for the past year or so. We use it for issues and for code repo integration and for tying issues to commits. We don't much use the wiki/doc functionality and we do not create issues via email, though I do believe it supports both of those features out of the box. We're very happy with it and would recommend it. It runs on Ruby on Rails, so make sure you can support that in your environment, needless to say. I've also used Trac in the past, which I also liked very much but I've found Redmine to be a little less fiddly though I recognize that is highly subjective. If it's easier to support Python/wsgi apps in your environment, Trac might be a better choice than than Redmine assuming its feature set matches your needs. -Mike
