This would also solve the stray auto-reply messages I am still getting due to this feature I already reported in another ticket. >Thanks, Zenju Attachment referenced is here: https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/site-support/1769/attachment/forum.PNG One way I've seen other systems combat this issue is by starting the notification email with a one-liner: `--- Reply by typing above this line ---` So that way you don't get all the threaded "junk", and unnecessary signatures (which often include phone numbers and addresses that folks probably don't want on a public ticket anyway). --- Sent from forge-allura.apache.org because [email protected] is subscribed to https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
