Hello,
Are there instructions anywhere that explain how to parse out custom
field information from tickets emailed into the queues via rt-mailgate?
I would really love to start using this feature, I understand this
was something in the works for 3.6? Is this working yet? Can I help
test this?

Jesse’s RT::Extension::CommandByMail
(RT::Extension::CommandByMail - Change metadata of ticket via email - metacpan.org) may do what you’re looking for. I’m not sure as I have not tested it.
Alternatively, there are wiki entries that explain how to do this.

I’ll take a look at the Perl module, but I also want to make sure I’m
seeing the Wiki entry you are thinking of…
Is this it?
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?UseRtTool
This page says
It can both query and update the RT database. bin/rt has its
limitations; it cannot deal with custom fields yet (as of January,
2006).
- As far as I know, bin/rt can’t handle custom fields, which limits
its usefulness.
- With the command line tool for RT-3.4, you can handle custom fields:
This seems a little contradictory… I also have an email from Jesse
Vincent that says the following:
Is it possible to insert/create/modify custom fields via the
command line
interface.
Yes, as of RT 3.6preX.
Anyone care to clarify what the status is here, and what I need to
look into? I’m running the 3.6 rc, working off of the information
Jesse provided to the list.On May 31, 2006, at 7:31 PM, Joshua Colson wrote:

Request Tracker Wiki
No. Although that may be another way to accomplish what you want. I was
thinking more like this one:

I’m currently using RT 3.6 command line tool to set/update custom
fields. Something like this works:
rt create -t ticket set queue=‘QueueName’ set status=‘open’ set
requestor=$USER set owner=$USER add
CF-CustomFieldName=‘CustomFieldValue’
My recommendation (without any real basis) is that you should lean
toward using Jesse’s extension as it is the most likely to be The Right
Way in the future.
