Does the CurrentUser have SeeGroup rights on IT_dept?
Also, I don't think $session{CurrentUser} is defined for
transactions created by an incoming e-mail. I could be wrong though.

Try this:

if ($self->TransactionObj->Type eq 'Create') {
    my $GroupObj = RT::Group->new( $RT::SystemUser );
    $GroupObj->LoadUserDefinedGroup( 'IT_dept' );
    return $GroupObj->HasMemberRecursively( $self->CurrentUser->PrincipalObj );
}
