We are interested in such a function, too. ;-)

Not exactly. Instead, what I'm looking for is a way to initiate contact with the 
customer, similar to the PhoneView however via e-mail. For example:

I need to contact a customer regarding an issue with billing. I initiate a new ticket 
within OTRS and send them an e-mail explaining the problem. They
receive:

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: [Ticket# 20030207000012] Issue with last month's payment ...

As OTRS stands, it seems that the only way to get in touch with a customer is by 
*them* e-mailing *you*. I'd like to see the ability to reverse this process.

Great to hear it! :)

Best wishes,
Paul
