Duplicate ticket creation by email

Hi All,

Somthing I'm trying to figure out in 0.72.3 (maybe fixd in 0.72.4 ?)

A user creates a ticket.. and I need a manager signoff on this ticket.
So at present, I forward the ticket by Outlook as an attachement to the manager, keeping the subject, CCing GLPI, and ask them to reply-all.

The manager replies (yes/no), and this is added ok into GLPI, and into that ticket.

However theres one problem.  Sometimes the manager hits "reply" intstead of "reply-all", and therefore GLPI isn't copied.


To try and stop this from happening, I wanted to send emails FROM GLPI to the manager, so that if they hit "reply" then its the helpdesk that they reply to.

The problem is, that when I do this, and GLPI processes the email, even though the subject contains the original ticket number, it creates a new one again, just for that one message.  I'm not sure why this is.

Subject line becomes, eg:  [GLPI #0002855] New ticket - FW: [GLPI #0002854] New ticket - test in 1

I'd love to have a better way of doing this, but I can't see how, as different managers have to sign-off on different things (so a group manager wouldn't work).

Any ideas?
