# {{{ Base Configuration

# $rtname the string that RT will look for in mail messages to
# figure out what ticket a new piece of mail belongs to

# Your domain name is recommended, so as not to pollute the namespace.
# once you start using a given tag, you should probably never change it.
# (otherwise, mail for existing tickets won't get put in the right place

Set($rtname , "rt.noc.tbwachiat.com");

# You should set this to your organization's DNS domain. For example,
# fsck.com or asylum.arkham.ma.us. It's used by the linking interface to
# guarantee that ticket URIs are unique and easy to construct.

Set($Organization , "tbwachiat.com");

# $user_passwd_min defines the minimum length for user passwords. Setting
# it to 0 disables this check
Set($MinimumPasswordLength , "5");

# $Timezone is used to convert times entered by users into GMT and back again
# It should be set to a timezone recognized by your local unix box.
Set($Timezone , 'US/Eastern');

# }}}

# }}}

# {{{ Database Configuration

# Database driver beeing used. Case matters
# Valid types are "mysql", "Oracle" and "Pg"

Set($DatabaseType , 'mysql');

# The domain name of your database server
# If you're running mysql and it's on localhost,
# leave it blank for enhanced performance
Set($DatabaseHost   , '');
Set($DatabaseRTHost , '');

# The port that your database server is running on.  Ignored unless it's
# a positive integer. It's usually safe to leave this blank
Set($DatabasePort , '');

#The name of the database user (inside the database)
Set($DatabaseUser , 'root');

# Password the DatabaseUser should use to access the database
Set($DatabasePassword , '');

# The name of the RT's database on your database server
Set($DatabaseName , 'rt3');

# If you're using Postgres and have compiled in SSL support,
# set DatabaseRequireSSL to 1 to turn on SSL communication
Set($DatabaseRequireSSL , undef);

# }}}

# {{{ Incoming mail gateway configuration

# OwnerEmail is the address of a human who manages RT. RT will send
# errors generated by the mail gateway to this address.  This address
# should _not_ be an address that's managed by your RT instance.

Set($OwnerEmail , 'root');

# If $LoopsToRTOwner is defined, RT will send mail that it believes
# might be a loop to $RT::OwnerEmail

Set($LoopsToRTOwner , 1);

# If $StoreLoopss is defined, RT will record messages that it believes
# to be part of mail loops.
# As it does this, it will try to be careful not to send mail to the
# sender of these messages

Set($StoreLoops , undef);

# $MaxAttachmentSize sets the maximum size (in bytes) of attachments stored
# in the database.

# For mysql and oracle, we set this size at 10 megabytes.
# If you're running a postgres version earlier than 7.1, you will need
# to drop this to 8192. (8k)

Set($MaxAttachmentSize , 10000000);

# $TruncateLongAttachments: if this is set to a non-undef value,
# RT will truncate attachments longer than MaxAttachmentLength.

Set($TruncateLongAttachments , undef);

# $DropLongAttachments: if this is set to a non-undef value,
# RT will silently drop attachments longer than MaxAttachmentLength.

Set($DropLongAttachments , undef);

# If $ParseNewMessageForTicketCcs is true, RT will attempt to divine
# Ticket 'Cc' watchers from the To and Cc lines of incoming messages
# Be forewarned that if you have _any_ addresses which forward mail to
# RT automatically and you enable this option without modifying
# "RTAddressRegexp" below, you will get yourself into a heap of trouble.

Set($ParseNewMessageForTicketCcs , undef);

# RTAddressRegexp is used to make sure RT doesn't add itself as a ticket CC if
# the setting above is enabled.

Set($RTAddressRegexp , '^steve.rieger\@something.com$');

# RT provides functionality which allows the system to rewrite
# incoming email addresses.  In its simplest form,
# you can substitute the value in CanonicalizeEmailAddressReplace
# for the value in CanonicalizeEmailAddressMatch
# (These values are passed to the CanonicalizeEmailAddress subroutine in RT/User.pm)
# By default, that routine performs a s/$Match/$Replace/gi on any address passed to it

Set($CanonicalizeEmailAddressMatch   , 'subdomain.example.com$');
Set($CanonicalizeEmailAddressReplace , 'example.com');

# If $SenderMustExistInExternalDatabase is true, RT will refuse to
# create non-privileged accounts for unknown users if you are using
# the "LookupSenderInExternalDatabase" option.
# Instead, an error message will be mailed and RT will forward the
# message to $RTOwner.
#
# If you are not using $LookupSenderInExternalDatabase, this option
# has no effect.
#
# If you define an AutoRejectRequest template, RT will use this
# template for the rejection message.

Set($SenderMustExistInExternalDatabase , undef);

# }}}

# {{{ Outgoing mail configuration

# RT is designed such that any mail which already has a ticket-id associated
# with it will get to the right place automatically.

# $CorrespondAddress and $CommentAddress are the default addresses
# that will be listed in From: and Reply-To: headers of correspondence
# and comment mail tracked by RT, unless overridden by a queue-specific
# address.

Set($CorrespondAddress , 'tickets at something.com');

Set($CommentAddress , 'helpdesk-ny at something.com');

#Sendmail Configuration

# $MailCommand defines which method RT will use to try to send mail
# We know that 'sendmailpipe' works fairly well.
# If 'sendmailpipe' doesn't work well for you, try 'sendmail'
#
# Note that you should remove the '-t' from $SendmailArguments
# if you use 'sendmail rather than 'sendmailpipe'

Set($MailCommand , 'sendmailpipe');

# $SendmailArguments defines what flags to pass to $Sendmail
# assuming you picked 'sendmail' or 'sendmailpipe' as the $MailCommand above.
# If you picked 'sendmailpipe', you MUST add a -t flag to $SendmailArguments

# These options are good for most sendmail wrappers and workalikes
Set($SendmailArguments , "-oi -t");

# These arguments are good for sendmail brand sendmail 8 and newer
#Set($SendmailArguments,"-oi -t -ODeliveryMode=b -OErrorMode=m");

# If you selected 'sendmailpipe' above, you MUST specify the path
# to your sendmail binary in $SendmailPath.
# !! If you did not # select 'sendmailpipe' above, this has no effect!!
Set($SendmailPath , "/usr/sbin/sendmail");

# By default, RT sets the outgoing mail's "From:" header to
# "SenderName via RT".  Setting this option to 0 disables it.

Set($UseFriendlyFromLine , 1);

# sprintf() format of the friendly 'From:' header; its arguments
# are SenderName and SenderEmailAddress.
Set($FriendlyFromLineFormat , "\"%s via RT\" <%s>");

# RT can optionally set a "Friendly" 'To:' header when sending messages to
# Ccs or AdminCcs (rather than having a blank 'To:' header.

# This feature DOES NOT WORK WITH SENDMAIL[tm] BRAND SENDMAIL
# If you are using sendmail, rather than postfix, qmail, exim or some other MTA,
# you _must_ disable this option.

Set($UseFriendlyToLine , 0);

# sprintf() format of the friendly 'From:' header; its arguments
# are WatcherType and TicketId.
Set($FriendlyToLineFormat, "\"%s of $RT::rtname Ticket #%s\":;");

# By default RT doesn't notify the person who performs an update, as they
# already know what they've done. If you'd like to change this behaviour,
# Set $NotifyActor to 1

Set($NotifyActor, 1);


# }}}

# {{{ Logging
# Logging.  The default is to log anything except debugging
# information to syslog.  Check the Log::Dispatch POD for
# information about how to get things by syslog, mail or anything
# else, get debugging info in the log, etc.

#  It might generally make
# sense to send error and higher by email to some administrator.
# If you do this, be careful that this email isn't sent to this RT instance.

# the minimum level error that will be logged to the specific device.
# levels from lowest to highest:
#  debug info notice warning error critical alert emergency

#  Mail loops will generate a critical log message.
#Set($LogToSyslog    , 'debug');
#Set($LogToScreen    , 'info');

# On Solaris, set to ( socket => 'inet' ).  Options here override any
# other options RT passes to Log::Dispatch::Syslog.  Other interesting
# flags include facility and logopt.  (See the Log::Dispatch::Syslog
# documentation for more information.)  (Maybe ident too, if you have
# multiple RT installations.)

# {{{ Web interface configuration

# Define the directory name to be used for images in rt web
# documents.

# If you're putting the web ui somewhere other than at the root of
# your server
# $WebPath requires a leading / but no trailing /

# if TrustHTMLAttachments is not defined, we will display them
# as text. This prevents malicious HTML and javascript from being
# sent in a request (although there is probably more to it than that)

# If $WebExternalAuth is defined, RT will defer to the environment's
# REMOTE_USER variable.

# $WebSessionClass is the class you wish to use for managing Sessions.
# It defaults to use your SQL database, but if you are using MySQL 3.x and
# plans to use non-ascii Queue names, uncomment and add this line to
# RT_SiteConfig.pm will prevent session corruption.

# Set($WebSessionClass , 'Apache::Session::File');

# $MaxInlineBody is the maximum attachment size that we want to see
# inline when viewing a transaction. 13456 is a random sane-sounding
# default.

Set($MaxInlineBody, 13456);

# $MyTicketsLength is the length of the owned tickets table on the

# to get a feel for how much work needs to be done before you get
# some time off.

# {{{ RT UTF-8 Settings
