run: perl -wc rt-mailgate and it will tell you what missing modules you
need.

Sounds about right.

FWIW, I have two boxes:

1) rt web server
2) rt DB server

The DB server is also my mail server.  I've got the corporate email guys
forwarding the rt-email aliases to the DB server which has the
appropriate lines in /etc/aliases.  rt-mailgate --url points to the web
server.  I *do* have a full blown copy of RT installed on the DB server,
but I don't know if that's necessary or not.  I just copied my
/usr/local/rt3 directory over from the web server.

I've also got postfix installed on the web server so that RT can send
out emails.  It just forwards all it's mail to the corporate mail server
and it then delivers it as required.
