Respect ReplyTo mail headers

When users write to our forums, we get the email with our own mailbox as the From address and ReplyTo as the user's address, so when we click reply for the email, it goes directly to the person.


Freshdesk doesn't support this, so we had to switch to changing From to the user's address and then put in the original real address into ReturnPath.


It's nuisance, it would be much better if Frehbooks supported ReplyTo, as every mail client does.


Thanks,

Martin

Was this ever addressed? We're facing the same issue :-(

Hello Jean,

no, it was not. We have to edit our responses - changing the client email address to the actual one as the Reply-To is not respected.

We tried to work with changing "From" and then setting a valid "ReturnPath", but it appeared it's not working with all of the hosts.

Thanks,
Martin

This is something we are looking into actively. I'll post an update once it is out there.

We have addressed this. You can go to Admin-> Email Setup and enable "Use Reply-To.." at the bottom of the page. Hope this helps.

Hello Abishek,

that's great!

We will let you know if it won't work for us.
