RE: [rt-users] Notify Requestor on Requestor change
Actually, I just want it to notify Requestor(s) whenever a requestor is added. For example: I personally get an e-mail about a user issue, I forward it to our RT instance, it then creates a ticket in the right place. Good so far, now I will change the requestor from me to the end user. Its at that moment when I change the requestor name that I would like the "new" requestor to be notified they have a ticket opened for them. -Original Message- From: Roy El-Hames [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 10:22 AM To: Helmuth Ramirez Cc: rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com Subject: Re: [rt-users] Notify Requestor on Requestor change I have given you the code for requester change , but you want to change it to a particular value .. you need to figure out where are you getting this value from ist in the original email text?? , do you have a queue for each customer?? how are you expecting RT to know when email comes in, the ticket created is for customer X and hence the email address [EMAIL PROTECTED] should be added as requester??

RE: [rt-users] Notify Requestor on Requestor change
Thanks Roy! Thanks for the taking the time to tell me that.

RE: [rt-users] Notify Requestor on Requestor change
Thanks Toby, that wouldn't be too bad, but then we'd have to be cognizant to do that with every message we forward as well as making this work with Outlook (yeah, we're an MS shop). Even setting the forwarding of e-mails to tickets aside, it would be a nice thing for us to be able to notify any new requestors they've been added to a ticket. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Toby Darling Sent: Monday, October 02, 2006 7:18 AM To: rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com Subject: Re: [rt-users] Notify Requestor on Requestor change Hi Helmuth > In our environment it is common for us to forward an e-mail to RT to > convert it into a ticket.

Depending on what email client you're using, you may be able to 'bounce' or 'redirect' email so that "the right thing (TM)" happens when RT gets the email in the first place - original sender is set as requestor and they get the autoresponse. I'm using Mail Redirect (http://mailredirect.mozdev.org/) with Thunderbird, and it's fine.

Hi Helmuth In our environment it is common for us to forward an e-mail to RT to convert it into a ticket. Once it's a ticket we can change the requestor (since by default it would be us).

[rt-users] Notify Requestor on Requestor change
Hi all, In our environment it is common for us to forward an e-mail to RT to convert it into a ticket. Once it's a ticket we can change the requestor (since by default it would be us). We do it like this to avoid the cut and paste alternative. So, with that said, is there a way tolet me rephrase that, I KNOW RT can do it, I just don't know how. We would like to change the requestor and upon doing so the new requestor be notified. I checked the default conditions, and they involve all the 'Change' items (Status, Priority, Owner, Queue) except Requestor :( Any help would be REALLY appreciated.
