Hey folks, I’m a little confused on just what mail aliases are used
for. Do I need to create a seperate one for each queue?For instance, I
have a queue, called NOC, I add the following to /etc/aliases
NOC: |"/opt/rt/bin/rt-mailgate NOC correspond"
Does this just get used to send stuff to the email address I specified
when creating the queue?
Yeah. if you don’t need the mail gateway for a queue, you don’t need the alias.On Wed, Mar 01, 2000 at 08:35:23PM -0500, Chris Black wrote:

Hmm, ok, is this possible? RT is running on a seperate linux box, our mail
server is a M$ Exchange server that the I don’t have access too. When
tickets are created in the NOC queue, I want email sent to noc@befree.com
which is the Exchange server account. Is this possible? Do I need the rt
aliases at all if all the email accounts are not hosted on this machine?On Wed, 1 Mar 2000, Jesse wrote:

You’ll have to have the exchange server forward those messages to sendmail
on a unix box so they can get into rt.
