As I'm new to RT I'm trying to setup a system for our needs. We want a queue for each customer. Tickets are created by email. You may want to rethink this, as it seems like a really bad idea. It could potentially make the system extremely unwieldy due to the number of queues, and potential

This is not an RT extension, just a perl modules. Install perl module graphiz from cpan (or apt-get install libgraphviz-perl under debian), restart apache and your tickets relation ships graph should work. The graphs you are referring to are ticket relationships, which does require graphviz.

I had thought I heard that the latest version of RT (3.8.7) allowed for Custom FIelds to be defined as Date and a user could select a date from a calender like on other RT ticket date fields. Is that so? If so, how do I do it?  Thanks. News to me. The major CF feature in 3.8.7 is nested
