Hi,

How do I get to messages I've sent and received via judge apps?
thanks
Dave

Check your email that you got linked with judgeapps.

To be clearer, JudgeApps doesn't store messages sent/received. Emails you send via JudgeApps get sent to the sender and the recipient via email. So any message you send will get sent to your email address.

Ah I see, thanks.

Hadn't realised it was an actual email service rather than a messaging one.

Cheers.

Okay, so I realize that messages are sent to my email. But what's the proper way to respond to them?

I wouldn't expect that replying to the email it's sent from works, since it comes from Firstname Lastname from the noreply email address. I've tried, and suspect JudgeApps isn't clever enough to automatically email the original sender based on the name. Is the only way to respond to Judgeapps emails to manually send a Judgeapps message back?

Hi Stephen,

Just reply to the e-mail. If you look closer at the e-mail you have received from Judge Apps, you can see that it is set up in a way, where your client should interpret it as coming from that judge's e-mail address which they had registered with their Judge Apps account.

I will send you a test message from Judge Apps and try to play with it.

Hi,

I replied to the email, but I don't expect you received it. Perhaps it's an issue with my client (Outlook for web, the email associated with my JA account is an old hotmail one), but it's being sent to the noreply address I mentioned above (noreply@apps.magicjudges.org).

Does this work better in Gmail? I can just change the email associated with my JA account if so (but would still recommend this looks into if that's the case).

Screenshot for reference.

The way these things work is by setting a Reply-to address - so the From is noreply@apps.magicjudges.org but a properly compliant email client will reply to the address set in the Reply-to.

It may be that Outlook for Web isn't handling it properly. If you look at the mail headers (not sure how to do this in Outlook for Web) you can see if there is a Reply-to field or not.

For anyone else following or for anyone who might stumble upon this in the future, everything is cleared up–replying to the email indeed works. There's no reply-to field, but the client knows how to handle it. Apologies to anyone who I sent duplicate messages to (but I wish someone told me I was sending them twice).
