Hi Doro,

I needed a way to strip the ticket info from the subject line also, but couldn't find anything within RT that would let me do this. I ended up modifying the SetSubjectToken method of Sendmail.pm so that I could selectively turn off the feature that adds the [myrt #1234] token to the beginning of the subject.

To disable the "add ticket info" feature, you add a "secret code" to the beginning of the subject line in your template. If the code is there, my mod strips it and then sends the e-mail with the original subject line unchanged. If the code isn't there, the subject line gets modified as usual. You set a variable ($DisableSubjectToken) in RT_SiteConfig.pm to some random sequence of characters that are not likely to ever show up at the beginning of one of your ticket subjects and prepend that variable to your subject line in your template when you want to turn off ticket stamping.

It may be overkill, but it works great for us and stays out of the way unless I need it. Here's where you can find it:

The documentation might be a little muddy, so feel free to ask if you can't figure it out.

Regards,
Gene

Previous email to the list brought back to my mind an issue we have. We need to send emails to another tool from RT and this tool scans the start of the subject line, so we need to
strip rtname from the subject line somehow (or at least move it to the end).
Is there a way to do this?

Doro
