And my example showed 2 queues... but you only need email address and a "goofy" user for a loop to happen that will cripple the system. I've had end-users reply to an email coming from <Mike Johnson via RT>(which the Reply-To: on those emails is helpd...@nosm.ca) and cc helpd...@nosm.ca. If you use the ParseNewMessageForTicketCcs, the above can become quite troublesome without RTAddressRegexp, as it would append helpd...@nosm.ca as a Cc email address, which would then email out to helpd...@nosm.ca whenever you do correspondence that a Cc would see... Hope that helps! Mike. Why couldn't the application simply query the database to figure out what the queue email addresses are, and don't permit them to be a recipient?
