What about if you remove the doors completely ? :-) You could always

We are now implementing a new ticketing system to improve response time  
and
reduce the chances of a request being missed. This does mean a change of
email address, but will help us to help you more efficiently. In future  
we
ask that new job requests be sent to nsmsjobs@xxxx.xx.xx.xx and general
queries/discussions to nsms@xxxx.xx.xx.xx.

Thanks for your cooperation - the NSMS Team.
