I was thinking of making OTRS into an XML-RPC client that communicated to an
XML-RPC server on our CRM application.

Now that I think about it, implementing an XML-RPC server into OTRS could
produce many positive benefits.

XML-RPC may be simple to integrate. The difficulty will be in writing an
authentication scheme to provide access control of XML-RPC clients. This may
not be a big problem since you have an existing user authentication &
session management system and which may be adapted.

I have a few pending projects that need attention, but I could provide code
samples over the next few days.

Fine. If I get (XML-RPC) help, then I could write the server part.

Of course! .-)

PS: PostMasterPOP3.pl is using Net::POP3. If Net::POP3 would be ssl able,
then
it would be no problem.
