Yeah, sorry, I probably didn’t explain that very well. Let me get specific.

1. We receive an email at `support@glitch.com`, which gets forwarded along to our `discoursemail.com` address.
2. Discourse follows its rules properly and rejects the email, but those rules don’t match our needs and we want that email to end up in the forum.
3. as a workaround we manually forward the email from the `support@glitch.com` address to our `discoursemail.com` address
4. The topic is created as from a discourse user associated with `support@glitch.com` instead of from a staged user associated with the original sender.

Is there any way for us to reply to that topic and have it go to the original sender? One thing I looked at was whether I could change ownership of the post to a staged user - that wouldn’t work in all cases for us because some of the original senders won’t be staged users, but even if they were it doesn’t seem like we can make a staged user a topic owner through Change Ownership.
