Hello all,
I searched the list archives (and the RT help/wiki), but was not successful
so far.
Maybe it is just to obvious?
I want to replace an older ticketing solution - not very nice tool, but with
an often needed feature:
When an agent replys to a notification for a ticket, this reply is sent to
the ticket requestor and added to the ticket as “agent answer” from the
trouble ticket system.
This feature is needed as our companys blackberry devices are not well
capable of handling login tracking for SSL web pages (don’t know why) and
installing the Opera mini browser seems to be impossible (telco
restriction).
So the only helpful way is to do these things by mail…
Does this work with RT? Which effort would I need to calculate to make it
working?
Thanks for any help / hint / …
regards,
Kai Schmitte

Hello Ruslan,
Thanks for the help!
I’ll try it - and I have even seen that setting some things can be done with
a RT “AddOn”.
Now I “just” need to set up mail usage for my RT to see it working
Thanks again!
Kai

Hello Ruslan,
thanks - after setting up incoming & outgoing mail to the 2 needed mailboxes
(support & support-comment) I’m able to
→ Answer customers
→ Comment tickets
by mail.
Great!
As we are currently only 1 full time and 2 part time agents working,
collisions will in the fírst step be avoided by sending a comment telling
all other “my ticket” and then sending an answer.
The next will be to learn Perl and get deeper into scrips - then your
recommendations on processing will be very useable!
Thanks for you your help!
Kai

Hello All,
while looking for another issue, I found a post to this list showing how to
resolve Ruslans first point
Ruslan Zakirov-2 wrote:
Yes, it works. People can use email to reply to a ticket, but only
when they get some notification from RT or know ticket id.
Notifications are configurable and you can implement various
solutions:
- When ticket is created you notify a group of people (your team)
with a template, in the template you can insert content of the
original request. In this case all people who receive such a message
can hit reply and write a message, however as they are all notified
you can end up with situations when multiple people reply to the same
request. Also, in RT all tickets have an owner, usually this is person
who is working on the ticket. Without using this field you have to
grant all staffs with right to reply to tickets and you loose track of
who is working on this or that ticket. To avoid such problems you can
use another solution described below.
It can be resolved by changing the ticket owner from nobody to the first
agent answering the ticket - like described in “automatic take” (see
