This question got me thinking about whether a plug-in could be developed to deal with the issue of cases that accidentally get re-opened when the respondent sends a final "Thanks" message back after you close a case.

I'd love to see some way to hook into FogBugz via the API, perhaps through an event, when an incoming e-mail is processed and an outgoing e-mail is generated. Ideally the interface would allow you to:

  • Abort the processing/generation of the e-mail
  • Modify the text of the e-mail before it is processed (for example to strip out signatures)
  • Alter the BugId is linked to before processing, if desired.
  • Control whether a case should be opened/re-opened based on the incoming e-mail.

Agreed! The more control we have over how incoming emails are handled, and how outgoing emails are formatted (or whether they are sent at all), the better. – Grip Jan 10 2011 at 23:06

I have added this feature request. I agree that better email interaction would be a great thing for Plugins, and I appreciate how well you've thought through the request.
