Setting email as queue e-mail

Im setting up some queues in RT and I need the e-mail address the emails
come from to be the correct queue email address. For example, the
Operations email should come in as operations@domain.com, but now its coming
in as "requestor email"@domain.com. I looked through RT_Config and saw this
line Set($FriendlyFromLineFormat , “"#HELPDESK" <%s>”);, but Im not sure
if that is what needs to be changed. Any help would be appreciated.
THanks.

Juan,

If the email is being sent from "within" the RT system AND the queue 

the correspondence is coming from has the correct email address, then
that should happen. WE have about 115 queues and they all have a unique
email address/alias. Howver, email that comes to RT from outside RT,
gets whatever it gets. that’s just “Email” as far as I know. There might
be a way to interdept email from outside RT and convert it, by why?
Maybe I do not understand your problem. Hope this helps.

We have Watchers that might be on more than one queue. Right now, emails
sent to any queue all come back looking the same, as far as display name,
and email address, and subject. I figured that if you set up the reply
e-mail address for a queue’s configuration, that would be where the email
would come from. Id like for the Ops queue to have a from email of
operations@domain.com, and the helpdesk emails to be from
helpdesk@domain.com, and so on. If i send an email to operations@domain.com,
it works correctly, going to right the queue. But Id want the autoreply and
all other transactions to come from (at least visually) from
operations@domain.com, or it’s respective queue.On Fri, Sep 26, 2008 at 1:38 PM, Kenneth Crocker KFCrocker@lbl.gov wrote:

Juan,

I'm really confused here. When you say "Watchers", do you mean 

SPECIFICALLY the Watcher role in RT or are you talking about people
“outside” RT sending in email to create tickets? Also,when you say “come
back looking the same” are you talking about emails sent to create
tickets that FAILED and came back to the sender or are you talking about
“Reply” email? There are 2 possible email address for a queue. Those
are where emails are "SENT TO’ RT. That is the address where “I would
send MY email to an RT queue” in order to create a ticket or reply to
correspondence that was sent to me “from that queue in RT”. That much
I’m pretty sure about, but heck, I’ve been wrong before. I’m not sure
you have your email configuration set up the way you need it to be or
expect it to be. Sorry, That’s about all I know on this subject.

Ok, Im sorry if I was unclear. I mean, the queue admins along with
requestors. Plain and simply, I want e-mails that go through the RT system
to have their own e-mail address per each queue.

If a ticket gets created/replied to/commented on for the Operations queue, I
want all correspondence to come from ‘operations@domain.com’, not from ’
helpdesk@domain.com’ and not from ‘"joe user"@domain.com’. If its from the
Helpdesk queue, I want all e-mails to come from ‘helpdesk@domain.com’.

Right now, when I create a ticket in the Operations queue, I will get an
autoreply from #HELPDESK operations@domain.com If I reply to that email,
the reply address on the new email will then change to #HELPDESK <"Juan
Mas"@domain.com> , I want that to stay as ‘operations@domain.com’. Also, I
didnt mention this before but #HELPDESK is the display name in Exchange for
our helpdesk queue. So is #OPERATIONS, and so on. So I want emails to come
in with the reply address as being whatever queue it comes from. so
#OPERATIONS operations@domain.com, #HELPDESK helpdesk@domain.com would
remain constant for each queue.

Maybe Im totally just not getting it.On Fri, Sep 26, 2008 at 3:32 PM, Kenneth Crocker KFCrocker@lbl.gov wrote:
