Automatically Open Tickets

You could probably start with this scrip:
http://www.fsck.com/pub/rt/contrib/2.0/IncomingEmail/IncomingEmail.pm

Use that as a base to evaluate if it came in via email. If it did you
could probably get away with:

$self->$Ticket->SetStatus(Status => “New”);

I think.

If you don’t understand how scrips work try this:

Best of Luck,
