Re: [otrs] OTRS - not like RT
Dear Alexander, You are correct, I would like the agents to use the email client to correspond with the customer once the ticket is opened / locked. Initially when the notification is received by the agent, he will goto web interface and "lock" the ticket. Subsequently, he would need to reply from his mail client since series of communication would happen with the customer and many times the agent will not be accessible to web interface. He would simply receive the mail on his mobile and reply. However, all such replies must be routed to OTRS first and inturn the OTRS should relay it to the customer as if it was sent thru supp...@xyz.com and not from the agent's id. I am not worried about not being able to use the templates or answers from FAQ in this scenario. In RT, once the ticket is assigned to an agent, agent will get a notification. Subsequently, his reply to that notification would route the mail to RT which inturn will relay the same to the customer. If customer again responds to the same, the same will goto RT and gets relayed to the agent's id. This way, agent though is communicating from his email id, his id is never exposed to the customer and customer would always see supp...@xyz.com.

This means the CSS file gets only loaded once.

[otrs] OTRS - not like RT
Dear All, Its now thirteen days I have been playing around with OTRS and setting it up in place of existing RT. However, I still feel that there are few limitations in OTRS compared to RT. I am not sure if I should call them limitations or that I am not able to achieve the required functionality. Here is what I wish to achieve and any help is highly appreciated. Fundamentally, I would like the 'agent' to be independent of accessing OTRS through web interface for replying to tickets. (Ofcourse, the ticket is configured to 'lock' on follow-up). Customer a...@klm.com sends mail to supp...@xyz.com. OTRS will then send "New Ticket # 12345" to customer and also sends a notification to the agent configured to "support" queue. (Till here everything works for me except that the 'customer' receives email from supp...@xyz.com and the 'agent' is receiving from o...@xyz.com). Now, I would like the 'agent' to just reply the mail he has received and the same should arrive at supp...@xyz.com. Inturn, OTRS should relay the same to the customer. Further when customer sends the reply, OTRS should receive the same and send it to 'agent'. I have tried playing around with "notification" etc. All the messages to the agent are going from o...@xyz.com and not from supp...@xyz.com. I am planning to have multiple queues. I did not see anywhere as how the system will be able to receive mail from o...@xyz.com since the same is not configured to 'receive' anywhere. Will appreciate help in achieving the same.
