I wish we could do that, but as it happens, that is the only queue that we don't want to send out RT replies from because the email that feeds that queue is an outward-facing public email (support@<my company>). All other queues, we want to be able to communicate owner changes, replies and such to the external addresses, because the external addresses coming into those other queues are there for a reason and are not advertised publicly. So basically, whenever someone sends an email to support@<my company> (the email which feeds into the incoming-external queue), we want to create a ticket, but then remove the requestor so that the external address does not get communications that might (accidentally or not) be internal private communications.

Chris,

We take a different approach that works pretty well.  We prevent
external emails being sent by filtering them out in our SendMail_Local
file.  Basically we only send emails that are verified against LDAP.  Of
course, a lot depends on how you determine who is external.

Subject: [rt-users] (Scrip help) Deleting a requestor upon ticket
creation.

Hello list,

I have a rather strange request, I want to delete a requestor when a ticket is created. Reason being, as the ticket is assigned to different

queues, replies to requestor are sent by the other queues, and that is usually not needed for external requests. The easiest way to address this would be to just remove the requestors on tickets created in that queue.


Looking at the perldoc for Record.pm, I noticed that we can use DeleteAttribute, so I tried:
Condition: On create
Action: User Defined
Template: Global Template: Blank
Stage: Transaction Create

Custom Condition:

Custom Action preparation Code: return 1;

Custom action cleanup code:

$self->TicketObj->DeleteAttribute('Requestor');



But nothing's actually happening, and the requestor is listed on the webui still. Is there a better way to do this? Am I even barking up the right tree? Thanks in advance for your help.
