Hi folks,

I just installed RT3 this morning and I still have hardly any idea
what I am doing yet.  Unfortunately I seem to be unable to get
rt-mailgate to work.

I'm using qmail and fastforward, so in my alias file I've got:

rt at blitzed.org:                 "| preline /data/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action correspond --url http://rt.blitzed.org/"

Now when I mail that address I get this in my qmail logs:

@400000003f3db3243820474c delivery 205765: deferral:

I have tried searching the archives of this list and all I found was
one similar query to which the answer was "set up your web
interface".  Well, I thought I had done that so I am not sure what
that would mean.  Certainly, my RT has a root user and another user
for me, both of which I can log in as.  The rt-mailgate POD confuses
me by saying that it too needs an RT user.

I followed the install instructions in the PDF and the only things I
have done so far is log in as root, change the password and then
create a user for myself.

I would be really grateful if someone could tell me what I have
missed, and show me where to read up on it.

Thanks,
