<div>This is an example of one grabbing email from a google apps account and sending it to rt-mailgate</div>

<div><br></div>
<div>We finally got fetchmail to work! thanks to everyone who helped, it now is up and running. However, we hit a snag while trying to set it up so that people just sent emails to <a href="mailto:helpdesk@myurl.com" target="_blank">helpdesk@myurl.com</a> and it creates a ticket. I think we have to set up aliases in fetchmail so that that email address is forwarded to the RT helpdesk queue, but I cannot seem to find out how to do it. Is there any documentation about doing this anywhere? I cannot seem to find it here nor with the all-powerful google. Thanks in advance, and I really appreciate everyones help!</div>
