E-mail Statements - Reply-to Feature

Post by TobyWilson »

Our church wishes to use the "reply-to" feature in outgoing (contribution statement) e-mails so that any feedback from contributors will be routed directly to the financial secretary. We've created a special e-mail address for this purpose, and we type that e-mail address into the "reply-to" field when issuing statements. The problem is that the reply-to address does not appear on the resulting e-mail messages, and when a recipient clicks the "Reply" button, the e-mail address that appears in the address window is the main church office address, not the financial secretary’s address. We’ll appreciate help from anyone with an idea about how to resolve this problem.

FWIW ... I just did a test and it doesn't look like the Reply to block is being added to the headers (edited for security):
