I would like to know if there is a way to send back answers when someone post with an anonymous email in a category.

I think that it’s not a priority feature , but in my mind it could be used to have sometimes guest in a category in a private forum.

Or maybe an anti chamber to test people before admission.

It’s ultra specific but could be useful.

Thanks and regards

There is no such feature yet – but it looks like [that will change in an upcoming release](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-as-a-private-support-portal/34444).
