Create ticket via email

hi

im able to create a ticket by sending an email but i dont know how to fill
the other fields apart from “Subject”. I have 4 custom fields that i want to
fill when i send the mail

i use a php form to send the mails and i tried to put the custom field in
the header to see if it works by typing “CF.{}=”
but nothing happens

i hope someone knows how to do it

Hi,

I found that when using email to create a ticket, unless it is sent in
plain text the CF fields are not parsed correctly.

Hope this helps, Jim-----Original Message-----

Jim,

You DO have CommandByMail installed, yes?

nordik,

We just installed 3.8.7 and we had to install CommandByMail separately,
along with adding it to the plugins. That’s no problem and it works well.
There are some readme instructions for how to use it, but basically, the
command lines are “CF{name of CF}: value” (minus the quotes, of course). I
ran into a problem with a “text” CF, or more accurately, ran into a problem
with my email editor. Our email editor adds a newline delimiter when it does
a wrap on content and CBM stops loading the value of a CF the moment it see
a newline delimiter. So, when I enter more than 58 to 60 charaters (the
point at which the email editor adds a newline delimiter), the rest gets
dropped. So, keep that in mind.

Good luck.

You really need to post apache error logs. Since you got a 500 there
will be something.

nordik,

Are you sure there wasn’t an instruction to do this?:

*Set(@MailPlugins, (qw(Auth::MailFrom Filter::TakeAction)));

*Your Mail plugin needs to have *Filter::TaksAction in it.

Try that.
