[otrs] Pop - leave copy of message in mailbox

Hi Matt,

I was typing the message on a blackberry so I didn't elaborate enough.

Currently my boss does not want OTRS to send notifications/replies to any 
customers than send an email to the address configured in OTRS (lets call it 
IT). We are running exchange and to get around this we just forwarded all 
mail to our helpdesk do this "IT" mailbox. What this did for us was allow us 
to track tickets, however the customer for every ticket is helpdesk as it is 
getting forwarded from helpdesk.

What I want to do is setup OTRS with the helpdesk account and disable all 
notifications. This would work great as we could track by customer, etc, but 
we don't want the emails getting removed from the helpdesk technicians 
mailbox.

Do you follow what I am saying?

Thanks
