  • Were there plans to introduce 'reply to PM by replying to the notification email' feature, or have I imagined this?

  • Yes, but we haven't got to the email stuff in general yet.

    The gist is, we create a message ID with every notification, and if you reply to an email we pluck that back out and know what you are replying to and then process it as you would expect.

    Additionally, we hope to support being able to email someone by their username and site, the equivalent of Velocio.lfgss@microcosm.app would check who the sender email address is, and if it's a known profile of the same site (LFGSS in this case), then it would create a PM shared across an audience of whomever else was CC'd.

    We chose the right provider for this... mailgun. They offer an inbound email API that allows us to do this.

    But it has a cost associated to it, and requires testing, and hasn't been our recent focus.
