Choose where replies go

Route responses back through the group, to one address, or to a no-reply explanation.

Choose where replies go

  • To the whole group sends a reply addressed to the group back through TellTell. The reply must pass the same sender policy as a new group message.
  • To a specific email sets that address as Reply-To so responses go directly there without being distributed by TellTell.
  • Replies are disabled uses a group-specific no-reply address. A reply receives an explanation instead of reaching the group.

Configure reply behavior

  1. Open the group’s Settings tab

    Scroll to Where should replies go?

  2. Choose an option

    Match the setting to the conversation: group discussion, a monitored coordinator inbox, or announcements with no replies.

  3. Set the specific address if needed

    Enter a valid email, choose Set email, and verify it before saving the group settings.

  4. Save and test

    Send a small message and inspect Reply-To in a recipient’s email client before using the group broadly.
