[rt-users] $ParseMessageForTicketCcs for correspondence?

[Torsten Brumm]

Hi Guys,

If i understand the statement correctly:

# 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 , 1);

Then the RT will add each Mail Address from To and Cc Line, so you have 
to check the next option:

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

Set($RTAddressRegexp , '^rt\@messenger.int.kn$');

But, how can i make sure, that the system don't add itself ?!? The 
Regexp can do a lot, but you have to use mail addys where you can 
"filter" for. But what if you have Mail Addresses like:

support at company.com
rt at company.com
helpdesk at company.com
???

How will you create the regexp for this?

@Jesse: is it possible to add all the RT System Mailaccounts separated 
by comma??? This could work, but better would be a check to the DB's 
Correspond and CommentAddress?!?

Any hints?? So far i know, this worked good at the old RT2.....?!?
