Thanks Jesse for your answer to my previous question. If I ever get all my open tickets closed Ill reset the rtname variable (most people don’t try to reopen old requests, so there should not be a problem there).
First question:
Is there anyway to remove the email headers from correspondence in rt? 99.9% of our requests are sent from within our dept so I don’t need to know where it was from, what mailer was used, etc. If I go back and forth with someone for a while, the correspondence list can get quite long and much of that is headers.
Second question:
Can a user sending email make requests in particular areas? I have our systems administration queue set into software and hardware areas, but email is not assigned an area until I do it on the web side.
Thanks again
Dave

Never saw an answer to this question and I am facing the same issue. Did
anyone send an answer off-list? If so, could you send me some suggestions
also?
Thanks.

I recall a horrible hack in (I think) rt/lib/support/mail.pm to strip headers.
It’s actually commented out, and I haven’t looked too closely at it. Jesse put
it there, but then appeared to change his mind.

Actually Tobias or Charlie put it there. I didn’t agree with it.
The good news is that this should be easier in the new code.

Probably me. I think our version here is modified to cut the headers away
from outbound messages (to the requestor) but not to the queue members. I
think that’s the most logical thing to do. And, yeah, luckily this is
very configurable in the upcoming version
