Hi, I’m having an issue setting up reply by email after following this guide . I’ve followed the troubleshooting suggestions and found that the email are stuck in the queue and there are errors in the mail receiver logs… Failed to POST the e-mail to http://community.parseplatform.org/admin/email/h…

Error is very simple to fix You need to use the link with https in the yml configuration for the mail receiver 301 at the end of error is correct as the http link is being 301 redirected to https causing the POST to not get the correct 200 response.
