Isn't there an option in the forum setup to send only a notification - without including the message text? That would make it obvious to even casual users, as there would be nothing in the notification to reply to.
i havent been able to find it. in all the years i have operated SMF forums.

Bummer. Automatically dumping all those replies into spam or deleting them automatically would probably cause you to miss important admin emails, too, wouldn't it.

I've probably replied to them without thinking. Will try to remember not to... .

i make sure i just delete and bypass trash.
I have no intentions on ever reading an email (private) conversation from the members.
They do say RE in front of the subject line, so i just delete. I cannot allow invasion of privacy and i wont do it myself.
