[rt-users] Requestor same as login info
Running RT3.4.5. on FC 5 On the self service site is it posible to have the requestor be the same as the login info? For example we use a generic account called Sales for all the POS users ( it can be from 1 to 7 users; generally these users are part time staff, and we just don't wan't to create many accounts so as to clog the database with that many users). So I am wondering if there is a way to have this happen, or it would have to be through a scrip that populates the requestor info as per login info...

[rt-users] No reply to ticket status changed for non-root user?
Hello List! I've installed RT 3.6.1 without problems on Debian stable (Sarge) (thanks to the wonderful guide on http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?DebianStableInstallGuide;). Then i created a queue called support, a user as and a group it-support (where as is a member). The predefined group Everyone has following rights: * CommentOnTicket * CreateTicket * ReplyToTicket * SeeQueue The group it-support has following rights for the queue it-support: * ShowTicket * ShowTicketComments * Watch * WatchAsAdminCc * OwnTicket * ModifyTicket (as described on http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?ManualInstallation;). However there is one problem: If a new email is send (by a user called as@domain) to rt (queue: it-support), the user as can see and modify that ticket in the nice web interface. But if as set the ticket status on resolved, no mail to the original ticket requester (aka client) is send, only the ticket status has changed to resolved. If i am logged in as the root user and try the same procedure (modify a new ticket and change the status to resolved), all works fine: a new mail is generated and send to the requester of that ticket. So i see the behavior i expected for the non-root user as in the first time. Any idea how to tell rt that every time a non-root user - for example as - has set a ticket to resolved (or just tries to reply to a ticket), a new mail to the requester of the ticket should be dispatched? Many thanks in advance for any help! With kind regards, Andreas Semt P.S.: I found following in the mailing list archive: (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/7197?search_string=reply;#7197;) --- RT will not send to the requestor by default if the requestor is also a ticket admin. This may be what you're running into. -j --- Is that my problem, too (can't try it in the moment)? If, so: *sorry* for asking! But: Why is the mail send when logged in as root user?? Any change to force rt to send a reply message, even if the requester is also a ticket admin? ___ 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.

[rt-users] Signature Format
A colleague asked if there was a way to add a space above the signature separator when writing an email within RT. Reason being, when creating a message we always have to go to the top and hit enter a couple times to produce this space. So my question is, which file do I change to insert that space immediately?
