Petition to ban noreply@ being used for sending emails. If your company can email me, the least you can do is make it easy for me to email you back.

@twostraws or the very least, a way to leave a message on the company website, apart from chat.

@twostraws A lot of people have vacation and other auto-responders on their email, so monitoring the from-address on a newsletter or other automated mail is really annoying in my experience.

Weird that there isn’t a “no automated replies“ standard in the email spec.

Absent that, I agree that autoresponders are are problem.

A very obvious reply email address link in the email is a decent alternative for emails from an unmonitored address.

@twostraws They dont want you to know this, but noreplay@ is a real email address

@twostraws I especially dislike the ones that use ‘noreply@‘, mention in the footer disclaimer that replies will not be read and be answered, AND STILL request somewhere in the e-mail that you should reply with questions or objections.

@twostraws Which is easy with the reply-to field. That's what it's for.
It's okay to have a dumb out-only postbox and several ones for your campaigns or whatever.

💯 for that petition.

@twostraws couldn’t agree more. Just recently I received an email by a contact@company-address - when I replied to it, I got an auto-reply telling me that this was a noreply address and to use the service@company address instead. Im mean who in their right mind would use “contact” as a noreply address?
