How do private email relays work with Zendesk?
Private email relays work with Zendesk by obscuring the sender's identity. These services use tokenized Reply-To addresses, which means the original sender's email address is replaced with a proxy address. This ensures privacy but can sometimes cause issues with maintaining conversation threads.
Zendesk interacts with these relays normally, but it's important to understand that the relay's purpose is to protect the sender's identity. For more insights, visit theoriginal article.
