I'm still trying to wrap my head around the Perl API.

I can create a ticket using the following code:

my $TicketObj = new RT::Ticket( $RT::SystemUser );
$TicketObj->Create(     Queue => 'General',
                          Subject => 'Test Ticket',
                          Requestor => $Requestor );

From reading the docs, it looks like the 'body' of a ticket is not stored with the ticket's record.

Is there a good way to append a few lines stored in a string to a ticket at the time it is created?

John,

Sounds like you're on the right track. If you look at the Ticket API ( either by running perldoc against Ticket_Overlay.pm, or by looking at $RTHOME/lib/RT/Ticket_Overlay.pm), you'll see that the Create method can take a MIMEObj argument, which is a MIME::Entity object. If you create one of these objects with your text in its body, you can pass it in to the Ticket->Create method.

A good example of this is in the CreateTicket method in $RTHOME/lib/RT/Interface/Web.pm
