I have such a thing with trac-gate, which is currently expirimental. The trac plugin portion simply exposes an xmlrpc interface for incoming emails. In order for it to know which ticket you are replying to, you either need to add some annotations to your email, or use announcerplugin (which sets a message-id that trac-gate can decode into a resource id). If you are just using it for new tickets, then it should just work. I also have a lamson component that knows how to lookup trac xmlrpc interfaces by incoming To: address. You could right a bash script to integrate with postfix. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
