Note that RT can be set up to authenticate using users in a external
LDAP database as well as its internal database and to allow meta data
updates using email pseudo-headers (in first paragraph), and thus can
be a bit easier to use for unix heads. :)

The latter is an extension available from
<URL: http://search.cpan.org/dist/RT-Extension-CommandByMail >.

We use both here at the University of Oslo.

Happy hacking,
