When someone replies to an email sent through Peptalkr, their response goes to the email address that sent it – unless you’ve set up a different reply-to email. Here’s everything you need to know about handling replies.
Emails sent through Peptalkr can receive replies, and where those replies go depends on how you’ve set things up:
By default, replies go to the sending email address.
If you’ve added a reply-to email address, replies will go there instead.
If you want to send emails from your own email domain, you must verify your domain with Peptalkr first.

Tips for managing replies
Here are our recommendations to help you manage email replies effectively:
Always set a reply-to address if you’re sending from Peptalkr’s email domain (@peptalkr.app) – this ensures replies reach you.
Choose a sending email address you don’t mind receiving bounce notifications or out-of-office replies to.
Avoid using [email protected] as this can hurt your email deliverability.
Best practices
Use a monitored email address
Make sure the reply-to email is an address that someone actively checks, so you don’t miss any important responses.
Consider a custom sending email
Use an email like [email protected] or [email protected] to keep things professional.
Avoid clutter
If you’re receiving lots of auto-replies (e.g., out-of-office notifications), try this:
Create an alias email for sending (e.g., [email protected]).
Set up a filter in your email client to move auto-replies to a specific folder.
Never use [email protected]
This can harm your email deliverability and make it harder for recipients to engage with you.
FAQs
What happens if I don’t set a reply-to email?
Replies will go to the sending email address. If you’re using @peptalkr.app, these replies won’t be forwarded to you.
Can I see email replies in Peptalkr?
No, replies are managed through your email inbox, not in the Peptalkr dashboard.
Can I stop receiving auto-replies?
You can’t block them, but by using a filtered alias email or a dedicated reply-to address, you can manage them better.
