I suspect the answer to this is “No” but I figured I’d check to make sure I’m not missing something. We have a category that receives emails forwarded from a shared inbox. This mostly works well but occasionally an email gets “mistakenly” blocked (I say “mistakenly” because the rules are being prop…

To clarify, you’re asking if a user of your discourse install can reply directly to another user via email, rather than have the email be routed via your mailbox to your Discourse install? Or has your shared mailbox appeared in Discourse as a responding user due to the forwarding? Why isn’t the di…
