Replying from different email address

Hi,

Ran into this problem today. A user submits a problem via a web form and
enters in an email address of info@domain.com. When they reply to the
answer from the web, they are using username@domain.com. This of course
sends back a nice one line ‘Permission Denied’.

Took a lot of looking through tables before I realized what had gone
wrong.

It would be worthwhile making the response a template, saying they don’t
have permission to modify the ticket, and list possible reasons why
(most likely is that you aren’t sending from the same email address).

Cheers,

Alex

I’ve run into this a couple of times, too.

This would be nice.

If you don’t mind allowing non-requestors to reply to a ticket, you
can go to the Group Rights for the queue and add the ReplyToTicket
right for group Everyone.
