The NotifyAllWatchers ScripAction should send mail out with the From:
header set to be the e-mail address of that particular queue (so that
any responses to that e-mail go through 'RT').

Can you check that the address for that queue is correct?  If so, then
look at the permissions problem that somebody else (sorry, I've
forgotten who) suggested -- 'RT' might be trying to set its From:
header, but your MTA doesn't trust the nobody user sufficiently to allow
it to fake its own identity.
