Guys,
I am new to RT and a novice on MySQL. Currently, we do not allow auto
create for external senders to any of our Q’s, but one of our departments
want to use RT to start receiving emails (tickets) from an external source.
My questions is, if I create this external entity in the RT database, would
RT accept that, and if so, how in the heck do I create that entry in MySQL,
with the right permissions?
Many thanks …

You should be able to do this from Configuration → Users → Create

Thank you Sir, I will give it a try. I was under the impression that this
is for users with the need to access RT, since this external just needs to
be able to send an email to RT and get a ticket create.
I will give a shot and see if it does the trick. I will let you know how it
tuns out.

We usually setup our RT mail server to accept emails only from domain/user that are allowed to.
In exim, we have an acl looking like this :
drop
!senders = ·*@mydomain.com:my_allowed_used@hisdomain.comOn Thu, 20 Jan 2011 08:49:50 -0800 Alberto Vazquez wrote:

Cool, quick question. Which file do I need to modify?
Thanks,

Anyone who sends mail to RT gets a user account. If you’re limiting
ticket creation to existing accounts, you will need to create a user
that doesn’t have a password and isn’t allowed to be granted rights
but does have an email address.

This worked, but I had to check the “Allow access to RT” option, otherwise
it would not work.
Thanks,

Yes, otherwise you would disable the user, but they cannot log in without a password.
