Daily Digest Email Question

by krawfo » Wed Aug 19, 2015 7:59 pm

We are currently utilizing the Daily Digest feature to update subscribers on new messages posted to our board. Quite often people REPLY to the daily digest email thinking they are helping to answer a question. I'm the forum moderator and the REPLY they send only goes to me.
Is there a way to make the daily digest email a NO REPLY?
Thanks.

You can be more specific and specify a reply email address in the Digests ACP interface, maybe something like [email protected]. The way email works, if there is no reply to email address specified in the email header the from email address is used instead.

In short email expects users to have enough experience using email not to be stupid.

In HTML versions of the digest there is a link on the topic and post so if they click on that in the email they should go right to where they need to go to reply. This is a training issue.
