# Create an outbound interaction
# Desk.com's API doesn't support creating outbound communications, so we do this over email with a BCC back to Desk and customer headers.
# Desk.support_email must be set to your Desk.com email address so that the email can be sent to the account and give the customer someone to respond to.

# Read more at http://support.desk.com/customer/portal/articles/4180
# Additional headers can be passed as well http://support.desk.com/customer/portal/articles/6728
