[rt-users] Autocreate ticket when sent an email

Ashrock,

If you're using any form of authentication for users, that will take
precedence before any Auto Add settings or Global/Queue privileges.

If you have all the auto add settings ("$AutoCreateNonexternalUsers ,1" &
"$AutoCreate, 'Privileged=>0 or 1") and the email user doesn't pass LDAP
(for example), then that user will NOT become a new user.

If that user DOES pass the Authentication process AND gets added due to you
auto create settings, THEN Global/Queue Privileges will matter.

Then, you have to ensure that the right notification scrips/templates are
enabled.

Does that help?
