If a ticket is locked then nobody else can work (communication with
customer) on it.

QueueView: All new or open and unlocked ticket. Ticket without responsible
agent. -=> Somebody need to work on it.

"new message": Your locked tickets where the last article isn't from you.
 -=> A other agent or the customer wrote a note or email. You need to check
      the last article.

ownership != lock: You can still be the owner and the ticket is closed and
unlocked. But if the ticket is reopend, you will get info about the 
followup.

Anymore questions?
