I'm looking for a super simple (ideally open source / self hosted) ticket/contact management system.

  • I'm looking for a super simple (ideally open source / self hosted) ticket/contact management system. What it needs to be able to do is

    • receive random emails at 1-n email addresses (think "info", "sales", "support", etc) from ideally separate POP/IMAP servers
    • match those emails to the correct queue / team
    • forward that email to the correct team
    • team members can simply answer to that forwarded email to answer to the original sender
    • the original sender can again answer and that gets routed accordingly
    • the system keeps track of which incoming email got an answer etc.
    • there's a simple web interface to monitor the queues and keep track of what is an open conversation, what is done, etc.

    What is NOT needed and can safely be omitted and ideally also hidden from the interface of present are things like

    • SLAs
    • priorities
    • knowledge base
    • asset management
    • and anything else corporate-y

    Canned answers might be a boon, but not stricly needed.

    Any suggestions? Bonus points if it runs on a LAMP stack, extra bonus if it is available in german language.

    @jollyorc If I understand you correctly, you want something like https://www.znuny.org/de or https://requesttracker.com/ which are both FOSS and pretty good at handling tickets.

    We are running znuny and before that OTRS for atleast 15 years in the company without any major issues.

    @jollyorc I am using Zammad, which works well, but is a bit tricky to install. It's developed by a German company, it's open source.

    @jollyorc I used Request Tracker (see @Kevin's comment) for the better part of 20 years. It can do all these things and does them very well. It is great to self host. However, it's not really "super simple" and has a list of CPAN modules longer than my "to do" list.
    Still, great tool.

    @ivory fyi: this renders without newlines / list markings in ivory compared to it on the mastodon instance.

    @jollyorc we use https://freescout.net at work. Based on laravel. Should tick most of your boxes.

    @jollyorc I have heard good things about https://zammad.org/ for this sort of setup

    @jollyorc The demo application published with may already meet your requirements. https://rei3.de/demo_en/

    @piratehonk @jollyorc alternative: www.zammad.org. Docker compose installation, but does include a KB.
    You should keep up with updates.

    @jollyorc
    Request tracker from best practical

    Edit: It is a perl thing that runs in/around apache and has lots of options for routing/ fetching emails. It's likely packaged for your distro already

    I really need some help with some specialist knowledge. Please boost for reach.Does anyone have a detailed comparison of the carbon footprint of composting foodwaste as opposed to an anerobic digestor with the gas being collected and burnt for fuel?Background and more info.Tomorrow I'm going to be asking a question at my local District Council (UK) about their new food waste initiative.They are going to provide a new weekly food waste collection with the rollout providing new bins but also plastic bags to put food waste into. The plastic bag is be removed at the disposal facility which will be incinerated.Food waste, after the plastic bag removal will be put in an anerobic digestor with the aim to syphon off the gases for "energy use" which I'm pretty sure means burning them. Our current system is the food waste goes in our green bin and goes to a large composting facility.I'm pretty sure of my assertion that providing single use plastic bags that will be burnt will increase rather than reduce their carbon footprint.My question I can't find the answer is the following:Is it more carbon friendly to hot compost food waste or to use an anerobic digester which harvests the gases to be burnt as fuel.Does anyone have a detailed, nuanced, comparison of the carbon footprint of composting foodwaste as opposed to an anerobic digestor.Deadline to question is 20hrs (sorry for short timeframe got the original date wrong). However if you miss the deadline but have useful info I'm sure this is the first round.Please boost for reach and thank you for taking to time read this long post.#fedihelp #ClimateChange #CarbonFootprint

    @zughy_boi org-roam within Emacs is the optimal choice for a small minority, many of whom will never come across it. https://www.orgroam.com/(Depending on the target audience, I would drop it from the list but there are researchers who depend upon it.)

    @TazPoltorak @Bfordham some toy machines cheat by only being able to make a chain stitch instead of the lockstitch used by modern¹ machines: those aren't really sewing machines, they can't be used to follow instructions designed for sewing machines and I'd recommend staying away from them even as a “starting” machine, because they really aren't one.the main issue being that the chain stitch unravels, and using it to make functional garments will require a lot more handsewing and different techniques that those used today.as the first sewing machine ever built, they were time saver when sewing meters and meters of ruffles on a 1850s dress, when you were used to sew 1840s dresses by hand, but really, sewing machine technology has moved on :)¹ i.e. since the second half of the 19th century :D
