Thanks for all the detailed info!! I still seem to have a problem. I tried it using Pop3s and IMAP as well and when I run the "Run Now" from the mail admin screen, it runs for about 60 seconds then it fails and I get the following:

Module: ModPerl::ROOT::ModPerl::Registry::C_3a_otrs_OTRS_bin_cgi_2dbin_index_2epl::handler (unknown version) Line: 48

Any ideas?

Thanks!!

Hi there,

We have successfully created tickets from inbound e-mails. We're currently fetching a POP3S account provided by a third party. These are the steps we followed:

Register the e-mail account at /otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminSystemAddress and associate it with a queue
Go to /otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminQueue and make sure the e-mail account is actually associated with the chosen queue
Go to /otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminMailAccount and create a new entry for the same e-mail account specifying all the info (protocol, username, password, server, queue). For making sure we can connect to that account from the OTRS server, we first configured it in an e-mail client on the same server and made sure we were able to read messages sent to that account
Send an e-mail to the e-mail account and then from the same /otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminMailAccount screen, click on "Run Now" so the account is fetched by OTRS
Go to /otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminLog and make sure that the e-mail account checking occurs without problems. If is there any problem the log entry will let you know. If everything goes well, after a coupĺe of minutes (if it says so at /otrs/index.pl?Action=AgentPreferences), a new ticket should show up on the chosen queue
Greetings,

Leonardo Certuche

Thanks for the info. I'll certainly head in that direction.

I actually have a Fedora10 server as well and tried installing and running it there. I ended up with the same issues. I just can't seem to connect to a mail server and pull in an email and have it create the ticket.

Thanks again,

Jon

have not worked OTRS in a winderz environment, so this just speculation. There have been a number of postings on this issue over the time I;ve listened and generally the trouble usually revolves around... perl, installed perl modules, and scheduled tasks.

Unfortunately exactly how this is done on a winderz box I can't say. Maybe this will give you some assistance in where to look.

Subject: [otrs] Question regarding inbound email / ticket creation

I'm rather new to OTRS so forgive me if this has been answered before. I've been struggling with this the last few days.

I have installed a couple of different versions of the Windows flavor of OTRS (including the latest 2.4(beta)) to evaluate it. I have yet to configure OTRS to receive inbound email.

The server I'm pulling from is an IMAP with SSL. Looking at other forums, it appears that this is a problem and doesn't quite work. So I enabled POP3 in a Gmail account that I have and it appears not to work either. I set it up in postmaster account as a POP3S too.

I just need to show people that this thing can pull an email in and create a ticket. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks, in advance, for the help!
