well, if the ticket number is lost, you have not so many solutions:

- try to work on BMC Remedy so it keep the RT ticket number anywhere in
  the e-mail (may be in headers or body). Then write a scrip on RT side
  to find it and merge tickets or better hack a litle
  lib/RT/Interface/Email.pm to match it earlier so the reply goes
  directly to the right RT ticket.
- create the ticket in Remedy, not using e-mail but with an RT scrip
  which talk to BMC Remedy webservice (google says that there is a SOAP
  interface and give examples on using it)
