I'm using this mechanism to set some dynamic fields in OTRS 3.3. I 
wanted to use statistics on the field and found I couldn't do this with 
a "Text" area. I re-built my dynamic field as a "Dropdown" type, and 
populated it with the value domain (which is emailed from a form using a 
dropdown - so it will be a 1:1 match).

When importing the email ticket, the postmaster filter is setting the 
data into the "Referral Reason" field, but it doesn't seem to be doing 
so as a 'dropdown' type, in that I can't search or report on the items 
which have been populated in this way (though they ARE populated).

If I manually create a ticket, and specify the data in the dropdown, it 
DOES work for searches and reports.

Do I need to do something different in the "Set Email Headers" box to 
somehow flag the data as being 'dropdown' data instead of 'text' data?
