I'm going to send the email I normally hate to receive. If you ever figure this
out, please share it with the list!
I have a script to assign the ticket creator as the owner on creation, which
works perfectly. Like you, though, the owner fails to display properly in
ticket lists but works if you open a ticket. This has annoyed all our staff for
months, but when I asked about on this list, we couldn't work out what the
problem was.
Sorry you're running into this, but at the same time, I'm glad to know it's not
just me. :)
