Not sure if this is the best place to post this, please move if not....

For some time, on both this software and previously on vbulletin I get endless emails arrive from people replying to their private message via the email notification that obviously come to me.  As a result I have to tell them to reply via the site.  This feels like a bit of an invasion of their privacy.  Is there anyway in future of making the email replies go to the actual intended recipitent?

 

Set your outgoing email to noreply@yourdomain.com  then when they reply it will bounce back to them. There isn't a method to send a reply to the other person's email though. 

 

You can also edit your pm template to say that replies to this email are not replies and goes to a unmonitored email. Please visit your messages at <url for messages>

Thanks, pretty obvious really 

I get this problem all the time.  There really needs to be an announcement in the email or a respond button that directs them to the community.  

Ok so just a little heads up in case anyone here is as stupid as me(unlikely), if you send out bulk mail that you want people to reply to make sure you change the email from no reply first ?
