When an incoming email creates a Case in Salesforce via Email-to-Case, the logic looks to match the email address in the ‘From’ field to a Contact’s email address in Salesforce. If a match is returned, the system associates the created Case to the related Contact record.

Note:
The Email-to-Case logic will query all the Email fields on the Contact object, including Standard and Custom Email fields.
Upon finding a match in any of the email address fields, Email-to-Case will assign the Contact to the new Case.
If two or more Contacts have the same email address, Email-to-Case will leave the ‘Contact’ and ‘Account’ fields blank.
If no matching Contacts are found, Email-to-Case will leave the ‘Contact’ and ‘Account’ fields blank, but will populate the fields ‘Web Email’ and ‘Web Name.’
