AW: [rt-users] newbie needs a quick hand

hi, 

rt has been installed on to the same server which recieves email for the
domain - freewayprojects.com

The entry in your alias on WhateverTheNameOfYourRTServerIs should look
like:
> queue1: "|/path/to/rt-mailgate --queue general --action correspond --url
> http://URLOfRT/"
> 

doesn't this mean that the requests sent to queue1 at freewayprojects.com
get put on to the 'general' queue.

i'm confusd by the basic issues on this.....

if an external client sends in a email query do they send all queries to
rt at example.com

from here they go into the 'general' queue.  this seems to be the way
the docs point to.

someone then reviews the 'general' queue and allocates the ticket -
maybe even moving it to a different queue.

or can several queues receive requests by using different email
addresses - i.e.

project1 at example.com
project2 at example.com
project3 at example.com
etc etc

and emails received at these addresses would be put into the queues
project1
project2
project3
etc etc

thanks again for the help,

kev bailey
