***** Documentation / restatement of the problem with examples

When you create a post or reply to a post there is an option to request "alerts" to your message by checking the appropriate box at the bottom of your message.  If you request "alerts" you will receive a PM to your registered private email inbox as follows:




When you open that PM (alert) message you see the following:



① REPLY ACTION To reply to this message post simply reply to this email message. 
..... NOTE: Please do not remove the ID in the message title.

② The email address of the sender

③ There is an ID number in the title

④ at the bottom of the message there are links to the original WPS thread




⑤ the "reply" is sent WPS (note the absence of a "title")




The message is sent to the WPS address from the alert message




The message is bounced... "No Reply Watchprosi." -and- "ERROR unable to process email".  The error message includes the text "Unknown forum"

____

I will forward the details to WPS technical support.

what ever you did worked... replying from the notification should work, but with some email systems (at some times) there can be problems. I always reply from WPS PM inbox as it's reliable... Let me know if you want to do more testing. In a few minutes I ... 

Correct

One was a reply to the email notification of the PM and the other was straight from the PM inbox. But, my question was how do you reply to an email notification of a post (not PM).

Test of Alert system...
