Hi all,
Had OTRS setup and working for a year now, with email notifications
working well.
Now I want to be able to reply to a ticket as an agent via email.
Try as I might, I can't get this to work.
Agent replies are sent to a different email address and identified in
OTRS using postmaster filters on the 'To' field.
That works. I've set the following x-headers :
X-OTRS-FollowUp-ArticleType: email-external
X-OTRS-FollowUp-SenderType: agent
X-OTRS-FollowUp-State: open
X-OTRS-FollowUp-Lock : lock
What happens when an agent replies to a ticket is this :
1) Agent response gets onto ticket correctly
2) Agent gets a notification via email that followup has been added to
ticket (To: agent, cc:customer)
3) Customer gets a notification saying the state changed to open
4) Ticket is locket to 'OTRS Admin' not the agent
Step 2 is wrong, as the agent doesn't want the followup notfication,
and the customer should not recieve a thank you for followup messages,
but a OTRS reply with the details added by agents email
Step 4 ticket should be locked to agent.
Has anyone any ideas what I'm doing wrong ?
All help appreciated !
