NAME

RT::Extension::RepliesToResolved - intercept replies to resolved tickets

DESCRIPTION

Intercepts replies via email to resolved tickets and creates a new ticket rather than updates resolved ticket. There are a few reasons to do this:

"Thank you" messages re-open tickets and mess with statistics.
People keep sending new questions into old tickets.

RT 4.0.7 required or you have to patch RT

You can fetch patch from github:

BETA

It's very simple module to give an example on how to do it. I hope to see patches that improve it.
