RT could do that, but that wouldn't catch any email addresses that forward stuff to an RT email address, or if using fetchmail, that forward stuff to an email address RT pulls from.<br><br>

<div>It's really a safeguard, because not everyone that uses your RT instance is "smart" enough to prevent loops from happening.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>And my example showed 2 queues... but you only need email address and a "goofy" user for a loop to happen that will cripple the system.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I've had end-users reply to an email coming from <Mike Johnson via RT>(which the Reply-To: on those emails is <a href="http://mc/compose?to=helpdesk@nosm.ca" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">helpdesk@nosm.ca</a>) and cc <a href="http://mc/compose?to=helpdesk@nosm.ca" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">helpdesk@nosm.ca</a>.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you use the ParseNewMessageForTicketCcs, the above can become quite troublesome without RTAddressRegexp, as it would append <a href="http://mc/compose?to=helpdesk@nosm.ca" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">helpdesk@nosm.ca</a> as a Cc email address, which would then email out to <a href="http://mc/compose?to=helpdesk@nosm.ca" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">helpdesk@nosm.ca</a> whenever you do correspondence that a Cc would see...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Hope that helps!</div>

<div>Why couldn't the application simply query the database to figure out what the queue email addresses are, and don't permit them to be a recipient?<br><br></div></div>
