Direct Email reply

[almereyda]

A notification message about a conversation in Cosinnus contains a link with a direct reply token at the bottom of the message.

This looks similar to:

---

DIRECT-REPLY CODE:
directreply+3+noo1ohlahJe9gaeteshieciegaekoo8h+wechange.de

A reply to such a message is instead sent to directreply@wechange.de.

If this reply code acts similarily to what GitLab or Discourse do, then the answer could be sent to

directreply+3+noo1ohlahJe9gaeteshieciegaekoo8h@wechange.de

instead. This address can be explicitly stated through the Reply-To: header. Also see RFC 2822 section A.2. for details.

Yes, this would have been my preferred approach too. Unfortunately, we ran into problems with our email provider not supporting wildcard (+) inboxes, so we sadly had to use the current functionality as a workaround.
