Hello, I wonder how tickets can be completely deleted form the system. I found no such link in the ticket details. Thanks

Hi,
You can use the generic agent to do this. Add a new Generic Agent from the
admin panel, specify your parameters (Date, Customer etc) and down at the
bottom locate "Delete tickets:" and select "Yes". This will remove the
tickets physically from the DB.

David

Another way to do this on a larger scale is to run the generic agent on the Junk Queue with delete. That way ANY tickets you move to that queue will be deleted completely from the system. I setup a Cron Job to run the Generic Agent every 10 minutes. This keeps the system very tidy! :)

Thanks David and Timothy, that's what I did and it works. Other related question is the Postmaster filter which I can't get to work. Is there a flag with which you can tell it that the text you enter is a regular expression or how does it differentiate between RegExp and plain text or do you have to escape always? It did reject text I entered into the Header1: Subject is "test". Regards!

I created a special queue in which tickets contained within are deleted should their status be set to 'Delete'. Agents, with permissions, just move the ticket to that queue and forget it.
