I receive replies to Private Message Emails everyday. Is there a way to add the senders reply address instead? Apparently people never make it to the "Do NOT reply to this email" part of the message.

Thanks!
Mike

The more I think about this, it also saves bandwidth as future exchanges generated by the PM will be outside the UBB network smile

The Reply-To address should be the user's own address, by design in the code.

Other alternatives to hacking things up would be altering the wordlet in the mail to simply exclude the text of the PM itself.

When a user receives a "PM" Notification it is from the "admin" address is it not?

From, yes... and the Reply-To is set to the email address of the recip.

That is not the case here. Is there something I have to check in control panel?

No, it should be doing this by default... 6.3.1.1?

6.2.1 and on a test 6.3.1.1 I set up. At best I can change the admin and the contact emails to get different results but it never tries to send the reply-to from the notifying user. Perhaps there is a hack one of your illustrious collegues managed to slip in ?
