that these mailgate programs that update RT tickets based on
'pseudo-headers' in incoming mail sound pretty cool.

All that is required is a Nag notify command that adds these lines of
text to your outgoing mail from Nagios. That command probably needs to
be a stand alone program that works out which extra lines to add on the
basis of the Nag macro values.

'Basically, this will make your standard mailgate accept quasi-headers
like "Status: resolved" in the top of the body, up to the first blank
line. It also has some fairly rudimentary support for named custom
fields... Enough for me, but you may wish to extend it somewhat,
depending upon your requirements.'

Sounds great. Thanks for sharing this.
