Firstly, could you ensure that you only send one copy of your mail?
Plain text and html versions in the same mail does not a polite netizen
make.
Second, there is a difference between 'localhost' and 'default localhost'.
So where the RT install is connecting to 'localhost':
> ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root at localhost' (Using password: YES)
This is not the same as the mysql client connecting to the default
localhost (usually /tmp/mysql.sock or somesuch):

> Enter password:

Try 'mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -p' to see if you have a permission
problem based on how you connect to the server. Further assistance on
this problem is available on the online mysql manual, www.mysql.com .
