We have an outside vendor that provides our PDA services and support.  As part 
of our process we assign Change requests to the vendor to handle specific PDA 
upgrades or new deployments and they in turn create and manage the request in 
their own system outside Remedy.  When they finish their request, at this point 
they have to not only close out their request but the Remedy change request as 
well.
What was proposed was a way for their group to send an email to the Remedy 
server (to get picked up by the Email Engine) that will complete the request in 
Remedy with a set Status Reason of "Final Review Complete" and with Scheduled 
dates and Actual End Dates.

Is it possible for a Email template to get sent to the 
CHG:ChangeInterface_Create form (provided by ITSM Change Management 7.02 
application) that if formatted and set appropriately will update a Change 
request and mark it Completed?
Is email a viable option that will avoid any system customization?

Looking at the code so far on that form it doesn't appear that it does and our 
front line support has not indicated if it can or not.

If it doesn't, can an email template be directed against the CHG:Infrastructure 
Change form directly?  Our front line support said it should not but I want to 
avoid having to create a custom form and workflow on top of ITSM to handle this 
for this one group's need.

Thanks
