This is mentioned in the automatic response by the RIPE NCC Automatic Hostmaster Robot. However, if you have an error in your request (e.g. a mandatory field is missing in a maintainer template) you should correct this before resubmitting the request. If you want to bypass the syntax checking robot after it is gone through the robot once and received error messages, you can do so by re-sending the request and putting the keyword "NOAUTO " in the subject of your mail (please include a space at the end of the keyword). Please don't hesitate to contact <lir-help@ripe.net> if you have any further questions.

So I stripped off the template tags and resubmitted and got back:
PLEASE NOTE: This ticket has *NOT* been identified as a request for IP addresses or AS numbers. We will handle this message with lower priority than a request for IP addresses / AS numbers. If your mail in fact is a request for IP addresses / AS numbers, there are most likely missing / incorrect fields in your mail. Please make sure to correct and complete your request so that we can give it appropriate priority.
So if I submit with ASN template tags, your robot flags it as an error and returns it. If I strip off the ASN tags then it gets sent to a lower priority queue. What is the magic sequence that will allow my ASN request to enter a normal queue? -Hank
