Thanks Les, that's exactly the situation - one RT instance, two queues,
two groups of people dealing with them, but they want to communicate as
they would with "external" people.
Is there any mileage in writing a filter outside RT to rewrite the
headers? I'm thinking it shouldn't be too hard to have a filter before
rt which takes a subject like:
[Netskills #1234] {Netskills #1236} Workshop booking details 10 Apr
and translates it to:
[Netskills #1236] {Netskills #1234} Workshop booking details 10 Apr
before passing it on to RT. Would that be worth a go do you think?
One approach would be to make a 3rd queue that has the combined set of
users (fairly easy if you manage the users by putting them in groups and
then using the groups for the queue permissions and watchers). It
wouldn't be completely transparent because you would either have to
create the ticket in this new queue or someone would have to recognize
the sender and push it there, but after that the right things would
happen. On the other hand, depending on the relationship between the
groups you might not want them both to have complete access to the
ticket (one end may want it closed before the other, etc.).
