Rueben,

I don't know. never messed with it. I see all this stuff in the list so I don't mess with it if I can help it, especially the mail part of it.

Kenneth,
I do not have the ParseNewMessageForTicketCcs set to true so the RTAddressRegexp is not even being used. Will setting this prevent this from happening? If so is the format for the RTAddressRegexp '[EMAIL PROTECTED],au$' ? Can this key have multiple values?

Thanks,
Rueben

Patrick,

That parameter has not changed at our site since, forever, and our e_mail requests/responses have always been fine except in the situations I mentioned.

Rueben,

If the RT ticket number is different each time it repeats, then we just had the same problem this morning. Our mailgate and mailserver, et al were fine. Our problem had to do with the way a person responds to the E_mail. We instruct our users to be sure that the RT ticket number is referenced in the subject line so replies to an RT E_mail has a reference to the existing ticket and won't try to create a new one. We also tell them that if they are gonna respond "reply all" with RT in the "CC" or "To" fields, that RT will create another ticket. We are also thinking that if a person responding DID have the RT Ticket number in the E_mail subject line, but did not have the "ReplyToTicket" authority for the Queue where the referenced ticket, that RT will also create another ticket. The last reason is still up in the air for us. Anyone?

Greetings,
I am using version 3.4.2 of Request Tracker and the system has been running fine for that last 6 months. 2 days ago one of our end-users sent an email request to our helpdesk and it keeps repeating even after we resolved the ticket. I have has to stop the mta to keep it from sending the email I have looked through the archives and and have not found any reference to this problem except 1 and it stated to resolve the ticket and it fixed their problem.. I really would like to open my hepdesk back up but I do not have any idea where to start to troubleshoot this problem.

When I've seen this sort of thing (which, granted, hasn't been often),
it's been because of a misconfiguration of the RTAddressRegexp
parameter.

If someone send a message to RT at an address that doesn't match that
regex, it'll cause RT to send a CC to that same address with the ticket,
which can end up opening a new ticket, which will make RT send a CC to
it, etc.

What's that set to, and is it correct?
