You need a script at both ends to massage the outgoing subject into the one
needed by the other end, after it comes out of the tracking system in
question.  It would need to store ticket number associations for future
emails, possibly in a database table.  You could attach this script to a
special email alias just for this purpose on both ends, which then generates
a new email with the desired subject line to the real email address for the
tracking system.
