 I need to setup an email alias for incoming vendor bills. So that email with attached pdf invoice will greate a draft bill with the pdf invoice attached. So the accountant would not need to dowload and then upload the attached bills from vendors.

Version Odoo 10 online. 

I have created an alias in settings/tehcnical/emal/aliases

Record Thread ID 0

Default Values {}

Alias Contact Security Everyone

Owner

Parent Model

Parent Record Thread ID 0

I get a Mailbox unavailable error.

If you want to create invoices from incominv follow these steps:

1.-You need to configure your catch-all mail properly.

2.- create a default partner to be assigned for all new invoices. You need to know his ID (default_partner_id) You can find it, easy activating development mode and looking 'View Metadata' in the 'developer tools'  (on right-top corner closed to company name is the developer tools icon)

3.- create new alias (config->email->aliases) using theses values and all other fields unset or 0:

alias_name: incominv 

alias_model_id: invoice

alias_contact: everyone

Default values: {'type': 'in_invoice', 'partner_id': default_partner_id}
