I would love to be able to resubmit the email but the powers that be are very 
strict on spoofing headers, hence the reason the email is sent from the 
“webmaster” account in the first place. I am not allowed to spoof the header as 
being from the customer. Inserting directly into the queue avoids the need to 
go via the mail server again and gets around this issue.

 

I will look at the other options you mention and see if any of those work any 
better.

 

I would still like to know why the auto reply is not being triggered in this 
instance though.

 

Thanks

Subject: Re: [otrs] Auto Response from API created ticket

 

Instead of using the API could you not just resubmit the email to the mail 
server once the headers have been corrected? or submit via the PostMaster 
scripts (can't remember the exact syntax now), and I think you can also drop 
them into one of the spool directories and then run one of the scripts in the 
bin directory to process any files in the spool directory.

Yes the queue is set to have an auto response of “auto reply”. This works if an 
email is sent to the mailbox monitored by the queue but not if we use the API 
to create the ticket.

 

The reason we have two methods is a website hosted by anther division of the 
company will only send tickets to us by email with the sender set as the 
webmaster. We have this going to a separate mail box and have an external 
script that picks up the mail, works out who it should have been sent from and 
creates a ticket via the API as if it had come in via email with the headers 
set correctly.
