Email parsing setup:
Email sending setup:
- The email sent by Discourse goes from
discourse@xxx.com
via a dedicated domain SMTP server setup for discourse (using the discourse domain address). - Any replies or when email bounces back, the domain SMTP server forwards the email to
discourse.xxxx@gmail.com
. This domain SMTP server cannot recognize the+
addressing, so if I include thereply_key
in the reply to email address, it’ll get dropped by the domain SMTP server. I can only set rules to forward discrete/unique incoming email addresses. - The discourse forum then uses POP via GMail to access those forwarded replies/bounced emails and parses them.
Does this help?
