OK, I resolved this with the maintainer of the QuickFIX/J site: He had the XML-RPC disabled
due fight some spamming issues.

Now he enabled it again and it works fine:

* general configuration page in the jira administration section
* permission called "Accept remote API calls"

But as you said, you already enabled this.

Does the above message "Bad envelope tag: html" always indicate missing XML-RPC support?
Then a more helpful error message from the JIRA connector would be appropriate.
