Ability to respond to any activity in a ticket's timeline

Today, hitting Reply always responds to the original user.  However, I want the ability to respond to additional users in the ticket's timeline.  For example:


John opens a ticket saying that his VM is having networking problems.  I know that Steve is playing around with the network.  I want to forward to Steve and ask if he knows what is going on.  When Steve responds, I want to be able to either reply directly to Steve, or reply to John, depending on what Steve's response is.


As things sit now, I can either respond to the requestor and CC someone else, or I can forward to a third party.  However, if the third party responds, I have no way to respond back to them.  I have to forward again (which excludes their response), or I can respond to the requestor and CC the third party.

Hello,


The reply from the 3rd party now gets added as a private note on the ticket. You can reply back to the email and maintain it as a separate thread within the ticket instead of having to forward it again. Consider it as a normal ticket conversation between the agent and the user, here it refers to the 3rd party.


Cheers!
