Hi all - you’ve all been so great in helping me and I really appreciate it. I hope you can help me again! How can I prevent OTRS from creating duplicate tickets when one agent emails another agent from inside OTRS? Currently, it will create an ‘open’ ticket in the sender’s queue, and a ‘new’ ticket in the receiver’s queue. Usually they are just one number off from each other. Then when the agent responds, the sender has a ticket in New and one in Open (the original email). It would be most desirable if the ticket wouldn’t be created for the sender agent. How can I accomplish this? Thank you! Leah

don't send to the ticketing system.

Short version: tell the agents not to do that. OTRS isn't intended to be a general purpose messaging system. If it's ticket-related, the sending agent should post it directly into the ticket as a comment.

Slightly longer version: you can add a note to the ticket and specify which of the agents should be notified about that (using a list with all agents).
