Hi
I have a problem that is driving me nuts, I have just installed the
latest RT, using almost default settings.
When a user writes to requests@myisp.com an ticket gets created and he
gets an email greeting reply where the ticket number is in the subject,
if the user then replies
to this email he gets a new ticket and a new email reply.
The desired result was that if the user replied to a existing ticket,
his reply is added as an comment to the existing ticket.
I have also tried to create an extra email for the comments, called
requests_comment@myisp.com and configured the “Reply Address” and
“Comment Address” but still no success, I get an new ticket every time.
I am using fetchmail
poll 192.11.11.11
protocol pop3
username requests password Bla Bla
mda “/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue General --action correspond --url
myisp.com”
no keep
poll 192.11.11.11
protocol pop3
username requests_comment password Bla Bla
mda “/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue General --action comment --url
myisp.com”
no keep
What am I doing wrong.
Best regards

Sune,
Tell the user to NOT use the “Reply All”, but the “Reply” only.
Additionally, if they make sure that the RT email address is a “Bcc” or
“cc” that will keep a new ticket from being created.

The only thing I can think of is that your RT name isn’t the same in the
subject line… so it thinks the [rtname #rtnumber] isn’t anything
related to RT.
Does the new ticket have a subject line that has the tag of the old
ticket in it?
By tag I mean the [rtname #rtnumber] in the subject line? or does RT
strip that out?
