Onderwerp: Re: [otrs] Update: New Customers Not Receiving New
TicketAuto-Response
OK, I'm at my wits' end. I guess I should be asking this question
instead:
In OTRS 1.3, is it possible for a previously unknown user to submit a
ticket via email and receive an acknowledgement automatically. I
envision this process as follows:
1. John Doe sends an email from jdoe@yahoo.com, which is not in the
system. The user has not registered via the web interface and the admin
has not set up such an account.
2. OTRS takes the email and generates an auto-response to jdoe@yahoo.com
that the ticket has been received and somebody will get back to them
shortly.
3. OTRS also creates a customer account, obviously only containing the
new user's email address.
Is this possible or would previously unknown users need to register
first at the website (or would an admin have to set it up)?
Thanks!

Could somebody point me to the part of Config.pm that handles this please?
Since my last message I set up the ability for customers to create an
account for themselves, hoping that thei would now receive auto-replies when
submitting new tickets. However, still no dice. They receive state change
notifications and admins receive notifications that there is a new ticket in
the queue, but the customers have no idea whether their tickets were
received or not (unless, of course, they log into the web interface and
check, but they get nothing by email).
Thanks!

Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

I forgot to mention:
When I closed out some of the test tickets I DID get a State Change notification to the "customer" address from which I sent the original email. So I get New Ticket notifications to the agent, State Change Notifications to the customers, but I don't get the New Ticket notification to the customer which should contain the user id and temporary password.
Thanks!

Not all configuration is done in the Config.pm file. You can set this up in the Admin section of the web interface. Check out the documentation at doc.otrs.org. Especially check out chapter 5.6 Auto answers [1]. Nils Breunese. [1] http://doc.otrs.org/2.1/en/html/x914.html

I know that, but I've read through the 1.3 doc at least twice, grepped
through the list archive and tried about everything with the Config
file. Apparently I'm at a dead end.

Ah, you're running 1.3 (sorry, the link I sent you was for 2.1). Well, the docs for 1.3 have chapter 6 'Auto-Reponse' [1]. Quote: "Of course auto-response need to be configured via the Admin Interface and for each queue." I don't understand why you keep mentioning the Config file. Nils Breunese. [1] http://doc.otrs.org/1.3/en/html/auto-response.html

I'm mentioning the Config file and the web/Admin interface. I simply
want to convey that I've tried everything I can think of. The auto
response is set for the queue already...probably the first thing I
ever did.

I would just like to try one more time to see if anyone has any true solution to this issue beyond suggesting that I read the doc, which I've done at least three times before ever posting here. Emails are working on my OTRS 1.3 installation. Customers are receiving emails when the status of their ticket changes. Admins receive emails when a new ticket arrives. The ONLY thing that doesn't work is auto-response emails to customers telling them that a new ticket has been created when they send in a trouble report by email. Thank you again for any potential help with this.

I have never used 1.3, I started with a 2.0 beta release and I'm currently running 2.1.4. Always worked fine. What is the reason you're installing the old 1.3 release? Though I agree it should work as advertised on 1.3. Nils Breunese.
