Also note that sending an auto-response for new emails is optional per mailbox. See more details in the tip below.
When do contacts receive email notifications?
Contacts (usually your customers) will receive an email for the following events:- A new conversation is automatically created from an email – this is an auto-response (see tip below) notifying the customer that their email has been accepted.
- A new conversation is manually created by a team member – this is also an auto-response (see tip below) notifying the customer that a new conversation has been started. .
- A team member posts a public reply to a conversation.
Sending auto-response emails when a new conversation is created (either automatically or manually) is optional. By default this option is turned ON, however, workspace administrators can manage this option per mailbox. See more details in Mailbox Settings.
Contact replies
Contacts (usually your customers) can reply to the email they receive from Replypad directly from their email client.
