Ah, I think I found my answer on that page:

*****************************************
Handling incoming mail

RT handles its incoming emails with a rt-mailgate script that passes
emails over http protocol to a RT's web server.

Note that the HTTP interface used by mailgate is not protected by
default and you must take care of it yourself. Read
MailGatewayAccessControl to understand how to improve security of this
interface.

First of all you have to add email aliases for each queue. See the following:

    * ManualInstallation
    * Qmail - Using Qmail Aliases w/ RT
    * Using Procmail to deliver RT-mail to queues
