[rt-users] ForwardFromUser doesn't remove subject tag, sets reply-to to queue address

[Woody - Wild Thing Safaris]

Hello,

I am under the impression from the docco that RT_Config 
ForwardFromUser=1 should remove the subject tag, but it isn't removed if 
i forward a requestor's correspondence (or maybe all email UI 
correspondence) - it uses the full subject of the requestor's 
correspondence that naturally includes the tag. It looks like the docco 
should say "does not add a subject tag", since correspondence made from 
the web UI does not have the tag.

Forwarding correspondence sets the "reply-to" header, so replies still 
go to the RT queue. not to the user.

The danger is that someone forward a mail out of RT, but then all the 
replies go back into RT and hence to the requestor, which is probably 
undesirable, as the message is forwarded out of RT.

Adding the following to both global forward templates solves this

Subject: { $Ticket->Subject }
Reply-To: { $ForwardTransaction->CreatorObj->EmailAddress }

did i miss something, or misunderstand something?

w.
