[otrs] IMAP command garbage at the end of tickets
Hello, Since some OTRS 3.x version every e-mail that gets imported into OTRS has the following line appended at the end: * 1 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen \Recent) This looks like some kind of IMAP command. We use the otrs.PostMasterMailbox.pl cronjob to import e-mails from an IMAP mailbox into OTRS. Any idea what could be the problem? Anyone else seen this?

Read the passwd file for your account and change the directory to what your account says and you should be able to log. This assumes that you know the password for the otrs account.

Currently www.otrs.org is down, so I'm not sure if I'm still current or not. ftp.otrs.org is still up though. The latest version in the 2.2.x series is 2.2.8. Version 2.3.2 is the latest stable. In short, the problem I'm seeing is that OTRS keeps putting it's own queue address in the cc: field when composing a reply to a ticket. If I manually remove that address, all is well, but if I (or another staffer) forgets, then it starts sending itself reminders and the like, which can even re-open a closed ticket. I have OTRS fetching all queues from a single POP mailbox and sorting based on the To: line (Postmaster Filters). On the mailserver, I have [EMAIL PROTECTED] forworading to [EMAIL PROTECTED], which is the POP account OTRS checks. This worked previously... Any ideas how to fix this?

Re: [otrs] Exploring OTRS
Aaron Spurlock wrote: I'd also like to be able to track the visit itself as a time unit. This is different from time spent on a ticketed item itself, as any that are worked on during a visit don't really have a time applied to them. We might work on 5 different items during a visit, and trying to split time up between them becomes difficult. That is where we would like to just track time for the visit (arrived at left at). I'm almost beginning to think we need to have a separate app developed that allows basic time tracking (time sheet?) in this manner, then tie together a MySQL query that will take the time of the visit from the timesheet app and find all the work done for the client during that time... Does anyone have any experience with using OTRS in this manner? Is it all doable inside OTRS itself, or am I looking at tying a few different systems together? If so, does anyone have a good suggestion for a timesheet app that would allow us to track time spent at a client location? Time tracking software and trouble ticket systems are two different beasts. You could also use something for tracking time (a watch, a timer (soft- or hardware)) and enter the time worked into a ticket (for instance as a note), but that does require some discipline on doing that. If your bills are based on this data you probably can manage to not forget to track your time. Maybe you could export data from a time tracker and somehow convert them into emails to your ticket system. But OTRS is not really a billing system, so it's not going to be a natural fit I'm afraid and you may just be entering time tracking info into OTRS only to find that you have to get it out of OTRS into your billing system and then you might as well skip OTRS for this. There are lots of programs and websites that let you track time. I have used slimtimer.com in the past, but I don't know your exact needs (nor am I an expert on time tracking systems). Good luck on finding a setup that fits your requirements.

I assume you use the PostMasterPOP3.pl method, so you'll have to edit ~otrs/var/cron/postmaster_pop3 and restart OTRS. You don't want to start a new check before the previous one has finished, so 30 seconds looks like dangerously low value.

Our backup software lets you set a command to run before starting the backup, so we created a pre-backup script that creates SQL dumps for all databases.

Richard Cross wrote: 1. It has retrieved every single mail item going back to 2006, resulting in just over 1,000 tickets. Is there a way to limit the number of emails retrieved, or to specify that only emails after a certain date are retrieved? 2. It has deleted every single mail from both IMAP mailboxes (help!), so now none of my colleagues who use those mail boxes can read the old emails. Is there a way to retrieve emails without removing them from the server? Answer to both questions: if you want to archive mails, do so in a separate mailbox. 3. The tickets are ordered with the oldest at the top of the list. Is there a way to change this? Admin SysConfig Group: Ticket Subgroup: Frontend::Agent::Ticket::ViewStatus Ticket::Frontend::StatusOrder::Default: Up. 4. I notice that one of the ticket queue links is flashing - what does this mean? Tickets are overdue. The queue wants attention. :o) Nils Breunese. ___ OTRS mailing list: otrs - Webpage: http://otrs.org/ Archive: http://lists.otrs.org/pipermail/otrs To unsubscribe: http://lists.otrs.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/otrs Support or consulting for your OTRS system? = http://www.otrs.com/
Re: [otrs] Email problem
Daniel Castro wrote: Yes, I read it. I configured the message properly, but the point is that when a client open a new ticket in a queue, just only one email address receive the message. I want to other email receive the message. If agent notifications are enabled and the agent is subscribed to the queue (has the queue highlighted under 'my queues'), then the agent should get a notification. You can have multiple agents subscribed to a queue.

Re: [otrs] TSV output to CSV
Mike Alsweiler wrote: Hello all. I would like to change to output of the Search CSV format to be comma separated rather than tab separated. I am running version 2.2. I found the tip below in the mailing list. My quesiotn is (sorry, I'm a newbie!) if I change this code as suggested below, will I need to recompile the application? It's just interpreted Perl code. There is nothing to compile. Instead of modifying the code you could also just replace tabs with commas using sed afterwards: # sed -i 's/\t/,/g' filename Nils Breunese. ___ OTRS mailing list: otrs - Webpage: http://otrs.org/ Archive: http://lists.otrs.org/pipermail/otrs To unsubscribe: http://lists.otrs.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/otrs Support or consulting for your OTRS system? = http://www.otrs.com/
Re: [otrs] replaced with database email
Lars Jørgensen wrote: Sometimes we need to send emails to other people than the ticket customer. Maybe I need to correspond with a service representative of a manufacturer. I want to keep this correspondence within the ticket and naturally I use the reply function of the ticket and enter the address of the third party. It might be better to open a separate ticket for the communication with the third party and link the tickets in OTRS.

Re: [otrs] replaced with database email
Lars Jørgensen wrote: Now I've tried it a bit and it's cumbersome (or I'm doing it wrong). If I want to split out a new child ticket from the current ticket, i click split on the ticket (in the bottom right). This creates a new ticket but it is not linked to the original ticket. I have to manually link it to the parent ticket. This requires me to either have very good memory or write down the ticket number of the parent ticket and link it. You don't need to split the ticket. You can just create a new ticket when you need to communicate with a third party and then link that ticket as a child to the original ticket. You don't need to memorize or write down any numbers, you can search for tickets after clicking the Link link. If I close the parent ticket, the child stays open, which is confusing. Sometimes you may want to close the parent ticket while keeping the child ticket open or vice versa. You close a ticket when the conversation has ended. Conversations in linked tickets doesn't necessarily end at the same time (although they may do in your case). If I have to reference content from the parent ticket in the child ticket, I have to copy and paste between tickets. If I want to forward a user's question to a third party it gets annoyingly difficult. Usually we need to rephrase questions anyway when forwarding them to third parties. Plus copy-paste is not that hard. But it might be less of a problem for us then it is for you as we're not dealing with third parties on tickets that often. Is it supposed to work this way or am I misunderstanding? It's mostly supposed to work this way. There are a lot of ways people will want to use a ticket system and OTRS can accomodate a lot of them. This generic approach might mean that not everything is optimized for your usage pattern.

Re: [otrs] Ticket edit
Tom Leonard wrote: This is my first OTRS installation. I'm using the system, but can't seem to find a function that allows me to edit information previously entered with a ticket. As an example, in a phone ticket, I may need to change: 1. Customer ID, simply because I got it wrong in the first place. Zoom in on the ticket, click Customer and specify the correct customer. 2. Accounted time. I have standard minimum times for initial ticket entry. In the beginning, I missed a few and would like to go back and clean this up. Add a note to the ticket and specify the time worked.

But the customers can't use firefox. 2 other users of he same customer don't have this problem with the webinterface but use the same system configuration and version of IE 6. Can anybody please explain me what the problem is, and how I can solve it!? There are lots of known problems with IE6, but not specifically with OTRS as far as I know. Can't they upgrade to IE7 if they can't use Firefox? At least that's a lot less broken browser, although the maybe the problem is a proxy server or some other network setting.
