Greetings Asif :-)
Marco,
Yes I wrote a "scrip" (what RT calls filters or plugins) that would
parse emails from bigbrother and automatically open a ticket in RT.
When BigBrother sent a recovery message, the scrip would auto-resolve
the ticket as well. This allows a tech to claim a ticket and comment on
it etc. This also enabled us to automatically trend how many BB tickets
were created and resolved over time, using RT and in-house tools.
If you are interested in the scrip I can dig it up and post it. It's
written in Perl using the RT API, it shouldn't be too difficult to
modify it for use with hobbit.
