New RT 3.4.5 install - rt-mailgate install

RT Users
1

Greetings!

I am trying to complete a new RT install configuration.

I am down to rt-mailgate. Here’s what I have read about the configuration:

SETUP
Much of the set up of the mail gateway depends on your MTA and mail
routing configuration. However, you will need
first of all to create an RT user for the mail gateway and assign it
a password; this helps to ensure that mail
coming into the web server did originate from the gateway.

   Next, you need to route mail to "rt-mailgate" for the queues youâre

monitoring. For instance, if youâre using
/etc/aliases and you have a “bugs” queue, you will want something
like this:

       bugs:         "â/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue bugs --action

correspond
–url HYPERLINK
"http://rt.mycorp.com/“http://rt.mycorp.com/”

       bugs-comment: "â/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue bugs --action

comment
–url HYPERLINK
"http://rt.mycorp.com/“http://rt.mycorp.com/”

   Note that you donât have to run your RT server on your mail server,

as the mail gateway will happily relay to a
different machine.

That does not say how to set up the user in RT. I created a user called
mailman. This is probably where I’m going astray, but I do not see any
special settings that designate this user as the user which can receive
mail.

I added the following line to /etc/aliases:

support: "/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue ‘00-Incoming Email’
–action correspond --url HYPERLINK
"http://support.emcsol.com/“http://support.emcsol.com/”

and ran newaliases.

When I add the --debug option to the command, I get this:

[root@tickets bin]# /opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue ‘00-Incoming Email’
–action correspond --url HYPERLINK
"http://support.emcsol.com"http://support.emcsol.com --debug
test
Connecting to HYPERLINK

l.com/REST/1.0/NoAuth/mail-gateway at /opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate line 99, <>
line 1.

It makes me think that the permissions on my designated user are not set up
correctly.

Thoughts? Thanks!

There should be no need for a separate user to inject mail using
rt-mailgate.
I added the following line to /etc/aliases:

support: “/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue ‘00-Incoming Email’
–action correspond --url http://support.emcsol.com/”
If this is a true copy&paste line it has an error, try replacing with
support: “|/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue"'00-Incoming Email"
–action correspond --url "http://support.emcsol.com/\”
http://support.emcsol.com/"

I’m not 100% sure about replacing the ’ with " but this is how I use it
and it works.

and ran newaliases.
on a sidenote, please supply which MTA you’re using.

When I add the --debug option to the command, I get this:

I have never tried the --debug option so don’t know how it should respond.

Thanks for the help!

The line in /etc/aliases is:

–action correspond --url "HYPERLINK
“http://support.emcsol.com/\\“http://support.emcsol.com/\””

I am using the following line to send the mail locally:

#mail -v support -S “Test” < body.txt

I see that sendmail has added additional slashes "" in the log file. Maybe
I should take them out in /etc/aliases and change over to single quotes?

I went ahead and did that. SO now here’s what is in /etc/aliases:

support: ‘|/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue “00-Incoming Email”
–action correspond --url "HYPERLINK

One more thing.

The email address I will use here is HYPERLINK
"mailto:support@emcsol.com"support@emcsol.com. The MX record is not yet set
up for this. My email server is on a different machine than RT. I will
forward email from my mail server to my RT server later. For now I am just
trying to get email into the HYPERLINK
"mailto:support@localhost"support@localhost account to go into RT.

That does not say how to set up the user in RT. I created a user called
mailman. This is probably where I’m going astray, but I do not see any
special settings that designate this user as the user which can receive
mail.

There should be no need for a separate user to inject mail using
rt-mailgate.

I added the following line to /etc/aliases:

support: "/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue ‘00-Incoming Email’
–action correspond --url HYPERLINK
"http://support.emcsol.com/“http://support.emcsol.com/”

If this is a true copy&paste line it has an error, try replacing with
support: "|/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue"'00-Incoming Email"
–action correspond --url "HYPERLINK
“http://support.emcsol.com/“http://support.emcsol.com/\””

I’m not 100% sure about replacing the ’ with " but this is how I use it and
it works.

and ran newaliases.

on a sidenote, please supply which MTA you’re using.

When I add the --debug option to the command, I get this:

[root@tickets bin]# /opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue ‘00-Incoming Email’
–action correspond --url HYPERLINK
"http://support.emcsol.com"http://support.emcsol.com --debug
test
Connecting to HYPERLINK
"http://support.emcsol.com/REST/1.0/NoAuth/mail-gateway"http://support.emcso
l.com/REST/1.0/NoAuth/mail-gateway at /opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate line 99, <>
line 1.

I have never tried the --debug option so don’t know how it should respond.

It makes me think that the permissions on my designated user are not set up
correctly.

Depends a bit on what your MTA shows in it log files, does your mail bounce
or does it not appear in queue ?

Thoughts? Thanks!

Hope this helps you.
