[rt-users] Any template variable for "From" in email correspondance?

[Peter Losher]

Hi,

In running our upgraded RT2 install (from the dark ages of RT1), we have 
encountered a missing ability from RT1.  With email correspondence in RT1, 
we always saw the email headers of the original message (before RT got a 
hold of it) at the bottom of the message.   

With RT2, that header section has gone away (which is fine by me, BTW), 
however it's hard to keep track in the course of correspondence who the 
original sender was in case we wanted to contact them directly for some 
reason (w/o having to head to WebRT every time)  So I was thinking about 
adding a template where RT included the sender of the message's email 
address in the first line of the messages (like "Sent from:") which would 
preserve the integrity of the message headers for responses, and yet allow 
those to quickly identify and cut and paste the email address for direct 
communication if we so desire.

So - Is there a function in RT that takes the sender and makes it a variable 
that I can pass to a template?

Best Wishes - Peter
