Do email replies get rejected if the topic title has since been changed?

I’m looking through some /admin/email-logs/rejected logs and, although I’ve only been through a few, some of the rejections have been replies to topics whose titles have changed. Could this have been the reason? They are listed as Email::Receiver::BadDestinationAddress. Another one is Email::Receiver::InvalidPost.

Believe that does prevent reply by email from working since destination address is changed.

If that is the case, it would be good to change it – I believe the old URL redirects, and it would be good if the old email address did too.

No.

When a reply via email to posts comes in, the replied-to post is looked up using the VERP, not the subject.

That’s good to hear, thanks.

There is an overlap with this problem: Body of message in /admin/email-logs/rejected is sometimes displayed as gobbledegook – maybe that was the cause.
