I haven't touched that file (lib/RT/Interface/Web.pm, by the way). The problem with having two names is that Joe Bloggs's account is "jbloggs". When Joe emails in a trouble ticket, RT attempts to make a new account "[email protected]". This is complicated by the fact that all the other services in this company recognize users by their email only. Is the solution simply to manually make sure that the username and email address are the same? -- David Griffith [email protected] _______________________________________________ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: [email protected] Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.
