Rithy, If someone is sending an email to RT aND adding their own Cc's (as opposed to letting RT take care of that with watchers and email notifications), it would be better to put the RT address in the BCc address. The reason is ..... a lot of your users getting that original NON-RT email may want to do a "Reply All" and since that original email they received does NOT have a ticket reference in the subject line, RT will get that "Reply All" with no ticket number reference and it WILL create a new ticket. It is FAR FAR better to make sure the RT Queue has the correct watchers, etc. and let RT copy all the appropriate people. Now, keep in mind that if you do NOT have all the appropriate people listed as watchers for a Queue, you can have RT automatically add them as "Ticket" Cc's, which would then mean that RT WILL STILL send out all the correspondence to the appropriate list of people.
So, set up the Queue's with the appropriate watchers, set up the appropriate email notifications, set up RT to automatically add Cc's to the ticket as Cc watchers and THEN, send your emails to RT only and let RT take care of the other correspondence to the appropriate list of watchers. That should do it. Hope his helps.
