I use Firefox (but you could do it in ie7 too). I middle click on the take link and it opens in a tab in the background. The I move on to the other tickets and either revisit the tabs or close them as needed. Not a perfect solution, but it gives me the option of opening up for immediate action or just grabbing them out of the queue for later.

To: rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Can anyone offer any guidance to troubleshooting permission denied emails? Is there a way to see what triggered the denial? Some of our queues have incoming email addresses where our customers send us messages. Other queues are for internal use only by our group. We create project tickets in those queues, and sometimes transfer incoming emails to these queues. In all of our queues (whether they have incoming email addresses or not) we have ReplyToTicket and CreateTicket rights assigned to 'Everyone' In this particular case a ticket was created in a queue that does not accept email, but 'Everyone' has rights to create or reply to tickets. After creating the ticket, a sysadmin in our group replied to the ticket and CC'ed a user in that reply (note, not a ticket CC, but just a CC to someone on the reply). When the person who got the CC replied, she then received a permission denied message. I don't understand why this would be since 'Everyone" can create or reply to tickets in this queue. I checked, and no RT user was created based on the person emailing in. The message just got rejected. ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2008 11:53:46 -0700 (PDT) From: Jorge Aldana <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [rt-users] Username at RT login not matching Ticket sent via e-mail To: John Arends <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Well users login with username and the ticket is sent in via e-mail as [EMAIL PROTECTED] so yes there's two accounts.

Also, the last I heard that excuse was for putting centuries in dates, thus saving 2 bytes for each date. We all know where that got us :) we are talking not about 2 bytes, but about x3 for each row. As far as I know InnoDB can not pack indexes so every record in the column will take full possible length in any index using it. Let's avoid discussion about characters and their length in bytes when we're using UTF-8, but in mysql it will be 3 times longer than ascii.

Older RT versions were not using any connection adjustments like SET NAMES or SET CHARACTER SET and most users had latin-1 as default mysql charset. RT was storing UTF-8 data into latin-1 columns what is theoretically wrong, but practically works fine. In 3.8 we have to properly define columns as binary, UTF-8 or ascii as actually they do contain only this data. MySQL's doc clearly says that the only way is to convert field to some binary format (no data change) and then to required character set. All these is described in comments in the beginning of the script. Try attached patch instead of what you've described below. I'm going to look at "NOT NULL DEFAULT NULL" problem.
