To do this, you'd need (as ticket #66 suggests):
- A way for new incoming e-mails to open tickets
- A way for cvstrac to send updates to tickets to the initial e-mail source
- A way for reply incoming e-mails to append to a ticket
There is a script at http://www.engelschall.com/~rse/cvstrac/cvstrac-mailgate (link broken) that appears to attempt to solve some of this. See also #557. CvsTrac also already provides hooks for sending updates of tickets, which are explored in http://the.taoofmac.com/space/HOWTO/Send%20CVSTrac%20Ticket%20Updates
Thoughts about the other issues:
- Should the approach taken be to post form data to CvsTrac, like the mailgate script does? Or to just update the database with a C filter program?
- Obviously there would need to be separate e-mail addresses (or prefixes, or something) to handle MultipleCvsRepositories
It seems like it would be nice if this could be grafted onto cvstrac instead of hacked into it.
