Change Email Subject Line?

Hey All,

I’d like to change the subject line in the emails that RT3 sends out. Right now it prepends the domain name of the rt server to the ticket number, so the ticket subject looks like this:

[support.ilovert.com #98] [Comment] Testing - Ignore me…

I’d like the subject line in the RT emails to look like this…

[support #98] [Comment] Testing - Ignore me…

Are there any problems with changing this?? And how do I go about making this change?!!

Thanks in advance!

For RT 2x

It is in the lib/RT/action/Sendmail.pm

sub SetSubjectToken {

my $tag = “[$RT::rtname #”.$self->TicketObj->id.“]”;

}

the $rtname is defined in the etc/config.pm

you can define a new variable in config say rtemailname and use it in the
sendmail.pm

I am not sure about any problems making these changes. I have not made this
change.

Be sure to also see Phil’s excellent warning about having a generic
$rtname

If using 3.x, edit your RT_SiteConfig.pm and change $rtname from
support.ilovert.com” to “support”.

The following is from RT_Config.pm:

$rtname the string that RT will look for in mail messages to

figure out what ticket a new piece of mail belongs to

Your domain name is recommended, so as not to pollute the namespace.

once you start using a given tag, you should probably never change it.

(otherwise, mail for existing tickets won’t get put in the right place

Set($rtname , “example.com”);
