Hi,
I'm trying to find out how to lock a ticket once a tech replies via email to a ticket with a [lock] string in the body.
I was trying to do this via postmaster filter with:
Match
Header1: Body Value:lock
.
.
.
Set
Header1: X-OTRS-LOCK Value: lock
this is not working. Any ideas?

Re: how to LOCK ticket via email reply
I would like to know this, as well, *BUT* here's the thing: I *THINK* you'd also need to make an owner update at the same time/first (maybe even solely?), and the issue I see is that either the response by an agent is internal and therefore ok, or it's external, and the "owner/lock" keyword is now visible to the customer.
The other problem with that is that if response by an agent is internal by default (ok, that's another *set* if Lock keyword is used), there won't be a good way to have Agents respond to tickets via email.
I think I might have said this confusingly.
New ticket notification email Agent
Agent replies via email to OTRS email address.
Postmaster Filter now needs to determine if it's going to assign an owner or just attach the response as an email note. In my case, it attaches as an email note. Of course, I'm also using the same database for customers and users, because I'm using OTRS internally. If it assigns an Owner, it should also lock it. But that should also be an internal note, not external.
BTW, do your logs indicate specific results?

Re: how to LOCK ticket via email reply
We want to change ownership as well, but locking was first step in a one step at a time attempt. Our agent email replies are strictly internal right now. A way to make them external is also on the task list.
Our system log does not work (another item on our list to fix) so I cannot report on that as you have asked. We are running on a Windows server.
Thanks!
