Answer 1

You are only printing the plain text body, perhaps you are sending your email as HTML?

this works perfectly for me:

global Messaging.InboundEmailResult handleInboundEmail(Messaging.InboundEmail email, Messaging.InboundEnvelope envelope)
    {
        Messaging.InboundEmailResult result = new Messaging.InboundEmailresult();

        System.debug('HTML BODY: '+email.htmlBody);
        System.debug('TEXT BODY: '+email.plainTextBody);
        System.debug('SUBJECT: '+email.subject);

        return result;
    }

Do make sure you put on debug logging for it to work, go to:

• Setup
• Administration Setup
• Montitoring
• Debug Logs
• Add a New monitored user (make sure you choose the user you setup for handling your inbound email)

Send your mail, refresh the page, there should now be logs available:

Or if you are the context user - you can just monitor the logs in the Developer Console as they occur.
