Right now I’m trying to tweak out one last thing in RT. Basically every email client/host has various parameters for determining if/how to thread emails, so I’m fighting a spread out battle. What I’m up against now is ensuring a “Re:” is put on the front* of every subject sent out of RT unless it is an original email to that contact. The two key places this seems to be currently missing is the Auto Replies and resolving tickets.
Any idea how I can get that little element cleaned up.
Cheers

There’s no option to move the tag and the code always adds it to the front.
I extracted an extension from customer work which moves the subject tag
all the way to the end. Try it out once it shows up at
RT::Extension::TrailingSubjectTag - Switch RT's ticket ID tag to the end of email Subjects - metacpan.org (should be
within the hour).
It’s not quite what you want, necessarily, since it may obscure the
ticket ID in long subjects, but it’ll make your Re: first.

Well that is almost accurate. The code does not always add it to the front.
If you reply to a ticket using the web UI (RT is still originating the
message, but on behalf of the user) it will put a Re: on the front of the
subject. I just don’t understand the logic behind not putting it on
all correspondence since logically everything sent out about the ticket
should be prefixed with the Re:. The only exception would be the original
ticket when it was created either by the system automatically or by a user.
I really don’t want the tag at the end of the subject as it is great
exactly where they put it. I’m guessing there is a just a goofed up flag in
the system which makes it assume those specific scrips are suppose to
originate emails instead of replying to the existing. In some ways it does
make sense because they do change the subject by inserting “Auto Reply” or
“Resolved” etc. For me I see no reason to fork the original thread with
two separate emails. I’ve already removed those extra tags, which while
they are nice, I don’t believe they are worth the cost of forking the
thread.On Fri, Apr 12, 2013 at 4:52 PM, Thomas Sibley trs@bestpractical.comwrote:

If you place tag yourself then rt wouldnt relocate it. In newer versions
ticket object has SubjectTag method. If your version is old then you can
grab code from repository - very simple code.

Ok just for anyone else looking for this. Here is what got what I wanted:
stick that at the top of your template and it will add the “Re:” to your subject as well keep everything as standard.
