[rt-users] rt-mailgate problem with RT 3.0.8

[Dan Armeneau]

I have added the following to my /etc/mail/aliases and once again ran
'newaliases' but still can't seem to get the mail into RT.

-------------[ /etc/mail/aliases  SNIP]----------------
helpdesk: "|/usr/local/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action
correspond --url http://queue.prl.ab.ca/"
helpdesk-comment: "|/usr/local/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action
comment --url http://queue.prl.ab.ca/"

help: "|/usr/local/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue test --action
correspond --url http://queue.prl.ab.ca/"
help-comment: "|/usr/local/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue test --action
comment --url http://queue.prl.ab.ca/"

-------------[ /etc/mail/aliases End of Snip]----------

Now the documentation seems a bit scant on this but I'm assuming you need
more 'entry pairs' in /etc/mail/aliases to accomodate more 'queues'.

I have also given the Configuration -> Global -> Group Rights 'System
Groups' the following:

Everyone = Comment on Ticket, Create Ticket, Reply to Ticket, See Queue.
Unpriveledged = Create Ticket.

I'm thinking I should have things covered with those permissions but perhaps
have given too many rights to System Group 'Everyone'.

Any pointers would be very much appreciated.

2 things you can check.

1-> Your alias should contain "--queue Test" instead of "--queue general"
2-> Verify that Everyone has permissions to create a Ticket. See
Configuration / Global / Group Rights.

Background:

Fresh install of FreeBSD 5.2
Fresh install of MySQL 4.0.17
Fresh install of Perl 5.8.2
Fresh install of RT 3.0.8

Created queue 'Test' and added the following lines to /etc/mail/aliases

-----------[Lines added to /etc/mail/aliases ]------------

helpdesk: "|/usr/local/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action
correspond --url http://queue.prl.ab.ca/"
helpdesk-comment: "|/usr/local/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action
comment --url http://queue.prl.ab.ca/"

-----------[End of /etc/mail/aliases snip]----------------

ran 'queue# newaliases' to set changes then -
ran 'queue# apachectl graceful' for changes to be recognized by apache -
just in case

When the mail I try to send to RT  finally gets bounced all I get is the
following:

-----------[Bounced e-mail error]-------------------------

Delivery failed 20 attempts: helpdesk at queue.prl.ab.ca

-----------[End of Bounced e-mail error]------------------

Any help with this would be very much appreciated as I have been at this for
a while and haven't made much progress for the last two days.
