We have the the reply by EMail function in use and it works perfectly. However, the badge “First Reply By Email” is not triggered for anyone. I have found an[old bug](https://meta.discourse.org/t/not-detecting-first-time-reply-by-email/48379), but he is marked as resolved. We use the latest “tests-passed” version, docker install and https-setup.

Bear in mind that the “First Reply By Email” badge is only awarded on publicly visible posts.
If you have some publicly visible posts that were not awarded the badge, here’s how to fix it
```
# ssh into your server
cd /var/discourse
./launcher enter app
rails c
OnceoffLog.where(job_name: "GrantFirstReplyByEmail").destroy_all
```
That will force the job to re-run and award any missing badges.
