The 'reply' and 'forward' hyperlinks in a comment transaction are valuable in case you want to include/forward those comments to cc's, requesters, or other parties that never received the comments because they were a 'comment' transaction. Not all comments are snide, childish remarks. ;-) -- James Moseley

If a comment is made in a ticket (let's say by an employee) and then it's either REPLIED to via email (with the comment left in the email) or from within the RT interface on that specific comment, the COMMENT most surely will be included in the REPLY to the requester. If you do not want the text of the comment sent to the requester, do not include it in the email reply nor use the reply link in the specific comment within the ticket interface. If replying by email, delete the comment from the email. If replying via the RT interface, use the generic reply link at the top of ticket. -- James Moseley

Kevin What you are saying is not entirely true. Lets say the history has 15 transactions of human typed responses. These 15 are made of 10 correspondences and 5 comments. We think the problem is the following. If the last transaction was a COMMENT say COMMENT(15) You then click REPLY on COMMENT(15) This generated a CORRESPONDENCE (16) with COMMENT(15) as the history. In such cases the Requestor now gets the COMMENT(15) Which we thought would never happen. This presents some danger from a users perspective about what we classed as private content from being inaccessible to the requstor.

Reply near a transaction quotes only the content of that transaction, it does not quote the entire ticket's history.

Kevin, Our queue name is: hm_customercare Reply address is: customerc...@admin.hewittandmay.com Comment address is: comm...@admin.hewittandmay.com I do not believe RT is misconfigured. We did not cust and past a comment into a REPLY. Requestors are not seeing Comments that are added to a ticket. However Requestors are seeing the same comments in the ticket history when using the reply hyperlink. When a ticket is open there are 2 reply hyperlinks that a user can click. One is in the top right hand corner of the ticket which does not show the history and there are other reply hyperlinks near each reply of the history. Simply clicking reply hyperlink near the history of a ticket will reproduce all the history including the Correspondences and Comments over the entire history of the ticket. If that ticket has Comments in the history it is shown as INLINE text which we would not have expected to see.

This looks like you quoted a comment in a reply RT will not send comments to requestors unless misconfigured to do so, but nothing stops you from taking a screenshot of a comment and sending it to a requestor or quoting a comment when corresponding with RT. You may have misconfigured RT to cause outbound comments to have a correspond address in it, but since you don't provide nearly enough data, we can't know what you did. -kevin > -- Forwarded message -- > From: Naresh Maharaj > Date: 4 January 2011 22:01 > Subject: Fw: [ Hewitt & May #176] Test Ticket - #1 from yahoo mail box > To: "Naresh (Gmail) Maharaj" > > > > > > > --- On Tue, 4/1/11, rt-customerc...@admin.hewittandmay.com < > rt-customerc...@admin.hewittandmay.com> wrote: > > > From: rt-customerc...@admin.hewittandmay.com < > rt-customerc...@admin.hewittandmay.com> > > Subject: [ Hewitt & May #176] Test Ticket - #1 from yahoo mail box > > To: contact...@yahoo.com > > Cc: kirsty.lickor...@extera.co.uk, nar...@hewittandmay.com > > Date: Tuesday, 4 January, 2011, 21:35 > > This ticket has now been closed. > > > > Henk, Customer Care > > > > Hewitt & May (Shirtmakers) Ltd > > customerc...@hewittandmay.com > > www.hewittandmay.co.uk > > > > On Tue Jan 04 21:34:54 2011, henkdhoore wrote: > > > Customer is complete nobhead. > > > > > > Henk, Customer Care > > > > > > Hewitt & May (Shirtmakers) Ltd > > > customerc...@hewittandmay.com > > > www.hewittandmay.co.uk > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > -- > Naresh Maharaj, > > Hewitt & May (Shirtmakers) Ltd > email: i...@hewittandmay.com > web: http://www.hewittandmay.co.uk pgpmIPl4YSMzp.pgp Description: PGP signature
[rt-users] Fwd: Fw: [ Hewitt & May #176] Test Ticket - #1 from yahoo mail box
Dear All We have found in issue in RT that causes us great concern. Below is a ticket which has a Comment followed by a Correspondence The problem is when we reply to a ticket (I assume this creates a correspondence) the customer also sees the Comment in the reply. The example below has a Comment "Customer is complete nobhead." The Correspondence has a reply of "This ticket has now been closed." In the exact email below the customer / requester contact...@yahoo.com would have definitely seen the bizarre internal comment. I was under the impression that this could never happen as comments were for internal use and never seen by the Requester.
