[rt-users] Preventing notification on custom scrip action

[Scott McDermott]

One of us misunderstands. The custom scrip is not generating the email
notification, it's placing an entry in the history, which is fine. The
problem is the owner change notification scrip (which I think is
default) notifies the owner of the assignment, and I don't want that in
this particular case. I do, however, want that email notification to
occur if someone goes in and assigns them ownership of a ticket.

You can adapt template for this scrip. You shouldn't past 
Transaction->Content into template cause it's empty.

Read section "How to be silent" of
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/?WriteCustomAction

If this doesn't help then post call that you use to change owner(can be 
done in different ways) and I can suggest you how to avoid recording of 
transaction.

As I said you can avoid transaction recording.
