[rt-users] How Do You Change the Requestor?

[verneb at sti.net]

Thanks,  I was hoping for a way to change it as it came in instead of having
to do the manual work.  If I only received one or two a day that way . . .
no problem.  But that is not the case.

If you use the RT web interface, it's pretty easy. 
You create a new ticket in your 'abuse' queue,
copy/paste the contents of the email into the ticket,
and copy/paste the original requestor's email address
into the 'requestor' field on the web interface.  RT
will treat that new ticket as if it arrived via email
from the original requestor.
