Re: Email to Remedy Customer Support - Rejected

2006-11-09 Thread Albert Bihler

Hi Carloyn,

I think since the new support web site was released
the parsing of the subject line is not that generous
(or user friendly) than it used to be.

You have to insert Support-ID AND Issue-ID in the subject
line. The prefix and even the order of these ids seems to
be important. For my the following subject works:

SupID:12345;IssueID:ISS03005262

RANT:
For my the most annoying thing is that I can't reply to
mails from BMC/Remedy support without altering the
subject line! Come on BMC/Remedy this behavior can be
changed easily and would help your customers a lot!
If you need some assistance to fix this issue please
contact me off list ;-)

Best regards,
Albert

I am having problems sending an email to Remedy Customer Support.

I keep getting a Rejection email. The problem is that they have some
Active-X in this email and that part is getting blocked. The only part I get
to see is where they tell you to put the Contract Id in the subject line. 


Even when I put the contract id in the subject line, I keep getting a
rejected email.

Can anyone tell me what is in the Active-X part of the email?

Thanks!

Carolyn

Hi Michiel,

I don't know why it didn't work for me. I got a
BMC Software - Customer Support Email Rejection Notice
from them stating this:

 To provide more efficient processing of emails to BMC
 Customer Support, our automated system requires your
 Support ID to be included in the subject for proper
 processing. For email updates on existing cases, both
 the Support ID and Issue must be included in the
 following format: SupID:;IssueID:ISS

 To expedite your new case as quickly as possible,
 the body of your email should contain:
Full BMC product name and version
Operating system and version
Database and version (if applicable)
Clearly defined problem description

 All emails will be classified as low Priority unless
 otherwise stated

 Sincerely,

 BMC Customer Support

Mails that we receive from BMC/Remedy have the subject:
Re: (ISS03005262, 3-Medium)  SupID:12345

Last time when I replied to this mail without touching
the subject line I got the above mentioned notice from
them. Maybe I (or my mail client / mail server)
unconsciously messed up the subject line. I will give
it another try and keep you informed if I find out
something new.

Regards,
Albert

Why can't you reply to mails without changing the subject line?
I have had no issues with that, their e-mails to me always have the
Sup ID and all that nicely in place, I can just reply it and the mail
will be processed by their system like it should.

Thanks Albert!

Turns out the support id had some problem with it - related to the new
system. Remedy was getting the same response with this particular id. They
reissued another one and it appears ok.

I hope that Remedy changes their emails to remove the Active-X. It is very
frustrating to get a rejection email and know that you are not seeing the
entire message.
