I'm surprised that rt-comment feeds into an rt-mailgate incant that
says --action correspond rather than --action comment.
Assuming it's actually feeding in to --action comment, then your CC'ed
users need the ability to Comment (if they're full CCs, you can just
grant the CC role Comment, but if they're one-time-ccs then you'll
need to hand out Comment more widely).

You should also check that nothing else is preventing user creation
(are you using RT-Authen-ExternalAuth and disallowing creation of user
accounts for people who aren't in LDAP).
