But if you use an automatic replay such as me, it's not working.

Is there a way to do the automatic reply in wordpress instead to tweak it thru gmail?

Thanks

Do you have any regarding this issue? I have set an automatic reply on gmail based on the subject of mail from the form, and since we have a "donotreply" address, my automatic reponse doesn't work.

Any feedback?

Thanks

The donotreply address is established, so it works flawlessly as far as delivery is concerned.

Gmail should be respecting Reply-To, just like everyone else, so this seems like a Gmail bug to me. I recommend getting in touch with Google about this.

When I access my emails via the mail programme on my mac it works like that, but when I log into my gmail account and access my mail directly, it replies to donotreply automatically. To reply to the correct address I have to copy/paste the address into a new message... which is a mega pain in the neck, and it never used to be like that.

Its just the last 2 or 3 days that I've noticed this happening... from 23rd of October and earlier the "from" and "reply to" fields are the same, both of them are the client address.

I have confirmed this just now. Is it working like that for you?

Over the last 2 or 3 days I have noticed that all emails that come to us via the contact form on our blog have the default reply-to set as [email redacted] instead of the email address provided by the person contacting us. This is quite annoying and is causing confusion because we receive a large volume of emails from the form and it's become difficult to keep track of who has been replied to and who hasn't.

I hope that this is just a bug in the system and not a permanent change?
