Listers,

We have just had an issue with the Email Engine changed to bug status by
BMC.

Two weeks ago we upgraded our production server from 6.0.1 to 7.0.01 Patch
003.  Since then we have had users complaining that they are receiving
random duplicate copies of notification emails when tickets are raised,
assigned, etc.  We are a completely self-build site and don't use any of the
Remedy Applications (ITSM, etc.).  We logged this issue with our support
partner (Fusion) who after looking at it their end passed it onto BMC.  We
have spent the last week sending log files, configuration files, sample
messages, etc., to BMC while they ask stupid questions that were either
totally irrelevant to the situation (e.g. "which application are you
running?") or asking for log files that had already been supplied.

Finally they tested the problem at their end have have discovered that the
email engine is sending out random duplicates and that it is a bug.
Hallelujah!

Needless to say the workaround has come from Fusion - no mention of one from
BMC - which is to revert to Patch 002 of the email engine.

The defect number, if anyone wishes to know, is SW00271676.  This doesn't
help those people who installed patch 3 to take advantage of the bugs fixed
in the patch release.

Bye for now,
 Ian ________________________________
