Service Desk Call Handling Procedure

• Process email-admin tickets. Some of these will be messages to mail lists. If these come from members of staff they should normally be released. It is best to check if they are replies to a message to a list in which case you might wish to check with the sender that they meant to reply to everyone!
• RT tickets can be escalated to the email-admin team by changing the Queue to email-admin with the Owner set to Nobody & Status set to new. Tell the requestor:
  I am passing this request over to our Email team who, I'm sure, will be in contact shortly.'
